On October 4, 2016, at approximately 0910 CDT, the Radiation Safety Office of CB&I Walker LA, LLC notified LDEQ [Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality] of a potential excessive exposure to a radiographer working in the licensee's permanent radiographic facility. After making a proper radiation survey, the above radiographer moved his exposure device with 100.6 Ci of Ir-192 and then noticed the rear fitting had come loose from the crank-out control, which showed approximately three inches of drive cable exposed. The radiographer pushed the fitting forward and tightened it back into the connector of the crank-out control. The licensee believes that at this point the source was inadvertently pushed out of the front of the camera approximately three to four inches. The radiographer did not notice this at the time and continued setting up for the next exposure. | On October 4, 2016, at approximately 0910 CDT, the Radiation Safety Office of CB&I Walker LA, LLC notified LDEQ [Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality] of a potential excessive exposure to a radiographer working in the licensee's permanent radiographic facility.
