Event Description	The following was received from the State of Nebraska: Event type: Equipment Failure as reportable under 10 CFR 30.50, item b.2. and Inoperability of Access Control System under 10 CFR 36.83, item 5. Event description: Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Radiological Health was conducting a performance-based inspection of the Becton Dickinson and Company licensee (10-08-01) during the late afternoon (between 2:30 and 3:30 pm) on October 16, 2018. During the inspection, an inspector was able to open an outer door leading from the production floor area to the control room, which is a part of the licensee's controlled access area. The control room also contains an access door which leads to a panoramic, wet source storage irradiator licensed for millions of curies of Co-60. The access door in the control room did not fail and was functioning as intended. The outer door leading to the control room was able to be opened by the inspector only after a routine entry was made. During the initial inspection by the licensee, it was determined that the locking mechanism was loose and did not latch as intended. The licensee was able to repair the locking mechanism within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> and could not open the outer door after a routine entry was made. The State inquired with the Region IV Regional State Agreement Officer (RSAO) in the early afternoon (between 1:30 and 2:30pm) of October 17, 2018 to ask if this incident was a reportable event under 10 CFR 37. The RSAO indicated and agreed that this incident was not a report event under the reporting requirements of 10 CFR 37. Later that afternoon (between 3:30 and 4:00 pm), the RSAO stated that this incident may be a reportable event under 10 CFR 30.50, item b.2. and 10 CFR 36.83, item 5. The State and Region IV staff are scheduled to discuss this further on October 18, 2018, and this incident may need to be retracted.
