| Event Description | The following information was received via facsimile:
On February 13, 2017, the Department [PA DEP Bureau of Radiation Protection] was notified by Universal Well Services that a malfunction of a roll pin on a shutter handle occurred at a temporary job site in Zelienople, Pennsylvania. It is initially reportable per 10 CFR 30.50(b)(2). A roll pin, which holds the shutter handle to the shutter shaft, on one of the in-line density gauges became sheared off during an attempt to move the shutter to the open position, rendering the gauge unusable. The shutter is in the closed position and out-of-service awaiting repair from a service provider. No exposures occurred. The shutter is in the closed position and the gauge is out-of-service and secure. There was no other damage to the gauge. A reactive inspection is planned by the Department. The gauge was a Berthold, Model LB 8010, Serial Number 10055, containing 20 mCi of Cs-137. Pennsylvania Event Report ID No.: PA170002 |
