The official written report and corrective action from [the licensee] was received on May 28, 2025. The report states that contractors removed the gauge in error; field operators failed to identify the gauge during walkdown procedure/planning. When removed the gauge was 10 feet away from the workers and stayed 30 feet away from operators in the field for two days. All involved were notified; dose assessment was completed and calculations provided. Based on calculated radiation doses, no worker or member of the public received a dose greater than the annual dose limit of 100 mrem. The radiation safety officer (RSO) implemented corrective actions which include mandatory RSO involvement during contractor planning and work, contractor orientation on procedures and additional training. | |||
