| Title | Source Stuck Outside Of Radiography Camera |
| Event Description | Team Industrial was performing radiography at the Sinclair Refinery in Tulsa, Oklahoma approximately 25 feet above the ground. During the exposure, the camera fell approximately 3-4 feet onto scaffolding. The fall damaged the ball joint connecting the source to the retraction wire i.e. the source will not retract. The RSO has contacted their corporate office and is contracting with a source retrieval company. The area has been secured and cordoned off. Inability to enter this area does not affect continued refinery operation. The radiography technician received a dose of 40 mR during this incident.
