| Title | Stuck Shutters on Two Gauges |
| Event Description | During a periodic inventory check at the Columbia Falls, MT location, the Facility Radiation Safety Officer discovered two Ohmart SHF1 source holders with inoperable shutter mechanisms. Both Cs-137 sources (10 milliCuries and 50 milliCuries) are in areas where exposure to the sources is minimized by their inaccessible locations. Weyerhaeuser has been in contact with the manufacturer of the level gauge (Ohmart/Vega) about removing the inoperable source holders and replacing with two (2) new source holders.
The licensee contacted NRC Region 4 (Torres). |
