This report was received by the State of WThis report was received by the State of Washington via email:</br>During preparation of a radiography exposure, the radiographer and another radiation worker from Bechtel, attempted to untangle their dosimetry from the camera apparatus. In doing so, they left their dosimetry next to the camera during a shot. The radiographer exposed his TLD (Thermo Luminescent Dosimetry) and pocket dosimeter, as well as a client's electronic dosimeter during the exposure. Their dosimetry minus the radiographer's rate alarm was left next to the camera during the exposure. The radiographer wears dosimetry issued by Northwest Inspection and their client, Bechtel, sub contractor of the US Department of Energy. The radiographer's pocket dosimeter was off scale. Bechtel's electronic dosimeter showed an exposure dose of 300 mrem. The radiographer reported the incident to the RSO (Radiation Safety Officer). The radiographer's TLD was sent to the dosimetry processing facility. Additional training for the radiographer has already taken place. In view of the fact that no 'persons' were overexposed, a spare TLD will be issued to the radiographer and will be allowed to continue to work.</br>The radiography camera is a QSA Model Number A424-9, Serial Number 32886G, containing an Ir-192 34.5 Ci source.</br>Washington State Incident Number: WA-16-045ashington State Incident Number: WA-16-045  +
