They were last seen in May of 2005. The person that looks after the signs took an extended sick leave for several weeks during July. Three of the Exit signs were made by Self Powered Lighting and the other 6 were from SRB. The original total activity of the 9 Exit Signs was 119 curies and the current total activity of the Exit Signs is now 54 curies.
