| Title | North Carolina Agreement State Report - Package Exceeded Regulatory Radiation Limits for Transportation |
| Event Description | The following information was received from the state of North Carolina via email:
A North Carolina licensee reported the receipt of a package exceeding the limits as defined in 10 CFR 20.1906(d)(2) and 10 CFR 71.47; direct contact readings of the package greater than 200 mR/hr. Origination of the package was: Laguna Verde Power Station in Mexico and the final carrier: Tristate, has been notified. Licensee reports that the package exceeding the limits was not designated as Exclusive Use on the bill of lading. At this time, it appears to be a manifest error on the part of Laguna Verde Power Station, Radiation Protection. Licensee followed their internal procedures for the handling of packages designated as Exclusive Use when initial surveys of the received package exceeded the limits in 71.47. Licensee reports that carrier Tristate; handles all shipments to the licensee's location as Exclusive Use. At this time, no public health and safety issues have been identified. It was determined through initial licensee surveys that the driver for this shipment did not receive a dose exceeding the limits and no other product was being transported or offloaded with this shipment. NC Radiation Protection Section has initiated an investigation and will be responding on-site. Follow up details will be forwarded to the NRC as appropriate following the outcome of this investigation. |
