On October 25, 2010, the licensee reported that while making preparations to perform plant maintenance, the shutter on a Ohmart Corporation model SH-F2-45 nuclear  gauge containing 60 milliCuries (original activity) of Cesium (Cs)-137 was found to be stuck in a partially opened position.  The licensee stated that they are going to shield the source to reduce the dose rate to below 2 millirem/hour, remove it form the vessel, and lock it in their Radioactive Material storage building.  No significant exposure has occurred due to this event.  The licensee has contacted the manufacture for repairs or replacement of the gauge.  The cause for the event is under investigation.  Additional information will be provided as it is received  IAW SA 300.
