Title	Agreement State Report - Fixed Gauge Shutters Stuck Open
Event Description	State of Texas provided the following information via email: On September 19, 2012, the licensee notified the Agency [Texas Department of Health] that during a routine inspection it had discovered that the shutters on two Berthold LB-300L gauges were stuck in the open position. Both gauges contained cobalt-60 sources: one source was 1.9 milliCuries and the other was 1.68 milliCuries. Since these gauges normally operate in the open position, there was no increased risk of exposure to any individual. The licensee is making arrangements for a licensed vendor representative to make repairs as soon as possible. Information will be provided in accordance with SA-300 as it is obtained. Source holder/source information: 1.9 mCi cobalt-60 source holder/source SN: 1412/1-7-98; 1.68 mCi cobalt-60 source holder/source SN: 1771/2-11-00. Texas Incident #: I-8990
