Title	Agreement State Report - Stuck Shutter on Process Gauge
Event Description	The following information was received from the Louisiana Department of Environment Quality via facsimile: On 11/09/2012, the RSO for Phillips 66 called in a preliminary report about [stuck] shutters on fixed level gauges utilized in their processes in the chemical plant. There was no possible exposure to the plant workers because the gauges were still installed on a process [tank in a remote location] and the shutters remaining open was not a problem. . . . The gauges are Omart and Ronan Engineering devices. [A manufacturer service technician] was contacted to evaluate the source holders and determined which devices could be repaired and which ones needed to be replaced. All of the source holders, with the exception of two were able to be freed up for continual use. . . . Two source holders were damaged during the evaluation process. . . .These two sources in their holders will be replaced during the next turn-a-round to reduce down time. . . . The gauges have been in the elements for a prolonged period of time and the shutters malfunctioned due to corrosion in the mechanism of the source holder. All of the sources were evaluated and inspected . . .. The manufacturer's service tech stated that it appears the be from being in the elements. The manufacturer stated that they were looking into finding a modification to shield the shutter mechanism from the elements. The Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality considers this item closed and the records will be reviewed during the next inspection. The gauges involved are: 1) Omart SHLG2-45 2) Omart SR 2 3) Ronan SA1-F37 Louisiana Incident Number T145023
