ENS 4401528 February 2008 08:00:00Agreement StateAgreement State Report - Source DiscoveredThe State provided the following information via email: The Licensee reports that they have 'discovered' residual radiation left in a Nuclear Systems irradiator model 'U' following the removal of the original 5000 Ci of Co-60 by a contractor of the OSRP last summer. The licensee thinks that one of the original 40 capsules that comprised the 8 rods (5 sources/rod) that contained the original 5000 Ci of cobalt 60 in 1958 may have remained in the device following source removal. The sources were removed for disposal last summer as part of the OSRP program to remove old unneeded sources of radiation. CA Report: 022808
