| Title | Agreement State - Shutter Stuck Open |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the Pennsylvania Bureau of Radiation Protection (DEP) via email:
On January 18, 2024, the licensee's radiation safety officer (RSO) was completing shutter checks and leak tests on a Berthold fixed gauge, model number: LB-300 W, serial number 1744-11-14 containing sealed source number P-2608-100 with 8 millicuries of Co-60. During the checks, the shutter's shear pin broke, and the RSO was unable to close the shutter. The vessel that this gauge is on is not entered very often and is not readily accessible. A licensed contractor will be on site on February 13 - 14, 2024, to repair the gauge. If they are not able to repair the gauge on-site, the gauge will be placed in storage until it can be sent for repair. The DEP has been in contact with the licensee. PA event report ID: PA240004 |
