| Title | Agreement State Report - Damaged Gauge |
| Event Description | The following report was received from the State of New Jersey via fax:
Event Description: [The licensee] is a trash-to-steam facility and uses generally and specifically - licensed fixed gauges as level indicators. One of their registered, generally licensed gauges was found to be damaged during the 6-month shutter check. The damage appears to be a result of impact and the plunger needed to close the shutter is inoperable. The gauge is a Berthold Model LB 7440 L, S/N 838-3-90, containing 50 mCi of Cs-137. The gauge is in a fairly inaccessible area of the plant, and personnel do not work in the area. No overexposures are thought to have occurred at this time. An investigation is being performed and a 30-day report will be provided. |
