AGREEMENT STATE REPORT LOST/STOLEN TRITIUM SOURCE EXIT LIGHTS

"Kellogg's did an extensive inventory of the exit signs at their facility in the past couple months. They determined that nine exit signs are missing, that were listed on a previous inventory. They believe that the signs are now in the local landfill because a number of remodeling projects have been done at Kellogg's. They have communicated with staff and contractors the importance of maintaining control of these devices. Kellogg's is also looking into alternative methods for providing exit signage".

Manufacturer - SRB Technologies Inc

Model # BXU20SW

Serial Numbers - 217791, 217808, 217845, 217897, 217903, 217949, 217950, 217951, 218307
