ENS 44406 | 11 August 2008 19:16:00 | Agreement State | Texas Agreement State Report - Badge Indicates Overexposure | "On August 11, 2008, the agency received written notification from the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) that a worker's quarterly film badge showed a reading of 40,080 mrem. Additional processing by the provider left the assessment as indeterminate however actual personnel exposure is beyond reality since the licensee is an operator (of) moisture density gauges only. A preliminary investigation has shown that the operator did not maliciously expose or tamper with the dosimeter and there was nothing unusual about the conditions of storage. The RSO stated that a full investigation will be performed to ascertain how the dosimeter received such extensive radiation exposure. The State of Texas will be conducting an on-site investigation.
