TROXLER MOISTURE DENSITY GAUGE DAMAGED
During a paving job on SR2032 near Pittston, PA, a Troxler Moisture Density Gauge, Model # 3430, was run over by a roller. The area around the damaged Troxler gauge was cordoned off and the Radiation Safety Officer is driving from Hazleton to Pittston to determine the amount of damage to the Troxler gauge. The gauge contains 10 millicuries of Cesium-137 and 40 millicuries of Am-241/Be.

PLANT ENTERED A REQUIRED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION SHUTDOWN DUE TO RCS LEAKAGE
The licensee detected a through wall leak on the charging system header discharge that is <0.1gpm. They have declared the ECCS inoperable, but available. Plant entered TS 3.0.3 and will be in cold shutdown within 30 hours. At this RCS leakage rate they have not exceeded any TS limits. The reason for the leakage has not yet been determined.
The NRC Resident Inspector, State and local agencies have been notified. There will be a press release.
