| Title | Georgia Agreement State Report |
| Event Description | The State of Georgia reported that one of their licensees, Applied Technical Services, was conducting radiography at the Rayonier Paper Mill in Jessup, GA. While filming a tank weld, the radiography camera fell approximately 24 feet to the ground. The licensee was unable to retract the source back into the camera.
The licensee isolated the area and covered the source with temporary lead shielding. Additionally, they established a 2 mR/hr boundary around the source which will be continuously manned until the manufacturer (QSA Global) representative arrives to secure the source and camera. The licensee reports that no overexposures occurred during this incident. |
