Title	Source Jams as It Is Moved from Drywell to Source Holder
Event Description	The following information was received via facsimile from the State of Kansas: We [Frontier El Dorado Refining] attempted to move a source from its drywell, into its source holder. The source seems to be stuck in the drywell. There were no reportable personnel exposures. Because of the position of this source, 2 feet inside a large vessel with 5 [inch] steel walls, it is shielded at least as well as inside its holder. The shutter in question is on an Ohmart/VEGA model SHLM-CR3 source holder S/N 19077661, containing 2 Ci of Cs-137 in a model A2102 sealed source S/N 0586CO. The source is located at approximately 100 feet above the ground. Operations and maintenance personnel were notified of the issue. A wipe sample was collect to check for gross leakage. None was indicated. We [Frontier El Dorado Refining] will contact VEGA Americas (formerly Ohmart/VEGA) to arrange for repairs. Item Number: KS130004
