Title	Agreement State Report - Shutter Stuck in Open Position
Event Description	The following was received by email from the state of Louisiana: On 03/11/2019, Georgia Pacific Consumer Products [GA-PAC] Port Hudson Operations was shutting down a process to perform a disposal decommission maintenance. In the process of securing the radiation sources for shipping and disposal, it was then discovered the shutter [on a level density gauge] would not close. GA-PAC has called a service contractor, BBP Sales, to evaluate the situation and determine the best course of action to correct the problem. GA-PAC will have BBP Sales determine the proper disposal for this device. The device was manufactured in 1967. The sources and device with shutter failure will be sent for disposal and not replaced. GA-PAC is decommissioning this unit. This is not a radiation exposure hazard and does not pose a health and safety situation for the GA-PAC employees or the general public. THIS EVENT IS CONSIDERED CLOSED BY LDEQ. This event is being reported to the NRC as required by Regulatory Requirement 10 CFR Part 30.50 (b) (2) & LAC 33:XV341.B. The Gauge is an OHMART HM8 device/source holder, S/N 6563 with a 100 mCi Cs-137 source. LA Event Report ID No.: LA-190003
