The following was received from the State of Wisconsin:
On February 16, 2018 WI DHS [Wisconsin Department of Health Services] was notified that at the licensee's Stevens Point facility a scanning gauge had a malfunction with the automatic control mechanism and the shutter would not open. The issue was originally identified by the licensee's on-site [personnel] on January 28, 2018 and a service provider was able to fix the issue on January 31, 2018. The corporate RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] became aware of the issue after an on-site visit on February 15, 2018 and reported it to WI DHS the next day. The department will follow-up with the licensee to determine the cause of the shutter control mechanism failure and delay in reporting issues to the corporate RSO.
