On 04/07/2012, PPL Susquehanna reported that a potentially contaminated individual was transported offsite via ambulance for medical assistance. The individual had been in the radiologically controlled area when the event occurred, and for medical reasons could not be completely surveyed for radioactive contamination prior to transport to the hospital. Therefore the event was considered transport of a contaminated individual. Health Physics personnel accompanied the individual to the hospital and conducted surveys of the individual, ambulance and hospital equipment and facilities. The results of these surveys indicated that no contamination was detected and the individual, ambulance and all hospital facilities and equipment were non-contaminated. Based on the above information, reporting pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(xii) described in the referenced Event Notification is retracted. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified R1DO (Joustra). |
