| Title | Agreement State Report - Stuck Shutter |
| Event Description | The following was received via E-mail:
As we [the Texas Department of Health] understand it, a gauge, Ronan Eng. Co., Model SA-1 with 3Ci of Cs-137, has a broken handle and the shutter will not close. The serial number (S/N) is M7844 and I see that the source model could be 3M or QSA (AEA) so that will [be] determined later. It said that the external exposure rate is a nominal 1.5mR/hr and the gauge is 40' high on a vessel which is in process so no vessel entry is anticipated. They hope to keep operating until their next scheduled outage on July 15. |
