| Title | Agreement State Report - Radiography Camera Left Unattended |
| Event Description | The following Agreement State report was received via email:
On February 10, 2014, [the California Department of Health, Radiologic Health Branch] RHB Richmond received a call from the MISTRAS Group RSO, indicating that a radiographer had inadvertently left behind a radiography camera when he drove off the parking lot at the Chevron Richmond Refinery. On February 9, 2014, at 1035 [PST] after the radiographer finished radiography using IR100 Camera containing 31 Curies Ir-192, s/n 6614, he left the radiography camera on the bumper of the truck; later, assuming that he left the camera inside the truck, he drove off and the camera fell onto the pavement. According to the radiographer, the camera was left unattended for a short period of time. Later, a Chevron Richmond employee noticed the camera in the parking lot and contacted the Chevron facility Manager. Chevron management contacted Mistras RSO and he drove to the refinery and took possession of the camera. California Report #: 021014 THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A "CATEGORY 2" LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL Category 2 sources, if not safely managed or securely protected, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled them, or were otherwise in contact with them, for a short time (minutes to hours). It could possibly be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of hours to days. These sources are typically used in practices such as industrial gamma radiography, high dose rate brachytherapy and medium dose rate brachytherapy.
