4 LABORATORY SOURCES DISCOVERED MISSING AFTER AN INVENTORY CHECK OF OVER 1200 SOURCES.
AGREEMENT STATE REPORT FROM THE STATE OF TEXAS: TEXAS INCIDENT No. I-8037
Licensee: Haliburton Energy Services located in Houston, Texas. Licensee No. L00442-004
"During an exhaustive inventory of over 1200 sources stored at the facility, it was determined that 4 laboratory sources that had formerly belonged to Sperry-Sun, were determined to be missing. The RSO thought that the report required was for a 30- day written report and submitted the same to this Agency. However, the activity of the missing sources are in excess of the reporting requirement for 1000 time the Appendix C value, thus requiring an Immediate Report. The sources from the closure of Haliburton's Fort Worth site, and acquisition of Sperry-Sun sources were being combined and placed in the new Houston storage facility. The four sources: 13 millicuries, Cs-137, Serial No. B-404, Model VD-HP; binary source, 0.01 millicuries Am-241/0.005 millicuries Cs-137, Serial No. LL-223, Model No A3201; binary source, 0.001 millicuries Am-241/0.005 millicuries Cs-137, Serial No. LL-224, Model No. A3201; and 0.01 millicuries, Am-241, Serial No. KK-691, Model No. A3201. All sources are Licensed to Texas Licensee L00442-004, Haliburton Energy Services, Houston, Texas. An exhaustive search of the radioactive materials use/storage locations and non-restricted locations in Building G (MTL); Building C, Manufacturing; Building E, Training; Test pits, TRAC Lab, Building DD, the old Sperry source storage bunker; QC CTN:Lab, Building S and Building AA, failed to locate the sources. This inventory discrepancy has caused Haliburton Energy Services to incorporate all sources into a central database with the capability to track movement of radioactive materials globally."
