| Title | Agreement State - Stuck Source |
| Event Description | The following is a summary of information provided by the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality (Department) via phone:
At 1315 CDT on May 15, 2025, the Department received a call from the radiation safety officer (RSO) of Iris NDT Inc. to report a stuck source in a SPEC-150 industrial radiography camera (serial number 2754). The 47.22 Ci Ir-192 sealed source became stuck when the operator attempted to withdraw it to the shielded position when the skid plate on the crank assembly buckled and became jammed. The RSO was able to successfully withdraw the source to the shielded position at 1344 CDT and the equipment was placed in an out of service status. Initial reports indicate that no overexposure to employees or the public occurred, and an investigation is ongoing. North Dakota Item Number: ND250001 |
