CONTAMINATED INDIVIDUAL TRANSPORTED TO LOCAL HOSPITAL
Polar crane operator experienced a medical condition that required immediate transport to the local hospital. The individual's Anti-contamination clothing were removed in a contaminated area of the Containment building by medical responders and the individual with the medical condition was identified as being contaminated. No specific contamination level was available at the time of the initial report other than he was frisked and the level was above background. It was also not known what the general level of contamination in the immediate vicinity of the individual was at the time of the initial report. A licensee Radiation Protection Technician escorted the individual to a local hospital in an ambulance. After arrival at the hospital, the individual's modesty garments were removed and the individual was no longer contaminated. Modesty garments were disposed of and the ambulance was surveyed and determined to by uncontaminated. The transported individual is in stable condition.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. No media or press release is expected to be made at this time.
