On November 24, 2020, the Agency was contacted by the radiation safety officer (RSO) of a Texas licensee reporting that two self-luminescent tritium exit signs were not able to be located. The signs are Sealed Source Inc. Isolite signs each containing 7.5 curies (original activity) of tritium manufactured in April of 2015. The RSO stated that the area they were in had some work done and that he believes the signs may have been thrown into construction dumpsters after being replaced. The signs were first discovered missing on November 11, 2020. The RSO has been actively searching for the signs but as of today he has determined that they are no longer at the facility. The RSO stated that he will attempt to determine the final disposition of the construction dumpsters believed to have contained the devices. Additional information will be provided as it is received. | On November 24, 2020, the Agency was contacted by the radiation safety officer (RSO) of a Texas licensee reporting that two self-luminescent tritium exit signs were not able to be located.
