| Title | Agreement State Report - Lost Tritium Exit Signs |
| Event Description | The following was received from the State of Nebraska via facsimile:
B & J Partnership purchased two Isolite model SLX60 exit signs with 6.2 curies of H3 in each sign on December 8, 2011. On September 19, 2013 the Department [Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services] was notified that the General Licensee did not know where the exit signs were after an extensive search. Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
