| Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via phone:
The radiation safety officer (RSO) was showing a new employee the nuclear gauges when they noticed that a gauge was missing a handle. The handle opens and closes the shutter. The RSO believes the shutter may be stuck in the open position. The gauge was manufactured by Burthold in 1995 with model number 7440 and serial number 2964 containing 50 millicuries of Cs-137. There is no additional exposure to plant personnel or the public due to the position of the shutter. Burthold has been contacted for maintenance. |
