Title | Offsite Notification To Los Angeles County Public Health Radiation Management Division |
Event Description | On September 3, 2009, at approximately 1730 PDT, Southern California Edison [SCE] was notified by a metal recycling vendor that a metal recycle load that was picked up at SONGS had been rejected at Terminal Island (Long Beach, CA) because it set off a radiation portal monitor as it was being processed through. The vendor (Alpert and Alpert) was requested to immediately ship the material back to SONGS. The County of Los Angeles Public Health, Radiation Management Division (Joji Ortego) called to confirm final destination, and a Special DOT Permit was issued to return the shipment to SONGS.
The truck is currently returning to San Onofre where SCE Health Physicists will evaluate the load. SCE is reporting this event in accordance with 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(xi). SCE will provide an update to this report after the truck has returned to SONGS and the contents evaluated. At the time of this report, Unit 2 and Unit 3 were operating at about 99 and 100 percent power respectively. The NRC Resident Inspectors have been notified of this occurrence and will be provided with a copy of this report.
The truck returned to SONGS site and SONGS has performed surveys on the contents of the truck cargo containers. SONGS' preliminary investigation did not identify any licensed radioactive material either internal or external to the containers. Surveys indicate that the source of the radiation appears to be boxes of ceramic tiles being removed from a storage area outside the Owner Controlled Area (OCA). Gamma isotopic analysis indicate the tiles appear to contain naturally occurring radioactive material (thorium byproducts). SONGS will continue to perform additional surveys to validate our initial conclusions. The NRC Resident Inspectors have been notified of this occurrence and will be provided with a copy of this report. Notified R4DO (Farnholtz). |
