Title	Agreement State Report Involving Contamination from a Suspected Broken Exit Sign
Event Description	The following information was provided by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts via email: Large area swipes reading up to 14,000 DPM H-3 were found in the loading dock area. No cause is known. Activity is distributed evenly on the floor and walls so airborne deposition is suspected. Current theorized cause is a broken exit sign. Licensee has evacuated unnecessary personnel from loading dock and is trying to find the extent of contamination. Since a broken exit sign could cause a release over 5 ALI, immediate notification was given to NRC over the phone. .
