| Title | Radiography Camera Source Disconnect |
| Event Description | The following synopsis was received from the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (the department) via phone:
The department was notified that the licensee was performing radiography shots with a QSA 880D (s/n #: D11621) at the pipeline just outside Ringgold, LA. When attempting to retract, the drive cable connector came off, leaving the 73 Ci Ir-192 source (s/n: 31880M) in the collimator. The Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) was notified and arrived to retrieve the source. The RSO covered the source with bags of lead shot and replaced the drive cable. The source was disconnected from the source cable and retrieved with tongs. The two radiographers received 30 and 29 mrem. The RSO received 189 mrem. Since the pipeline is in an isolated area, there were no other workers or member of the public around. |
