AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - GAUGE SHUTTER FAILS TO FUNCTION
The following information was received by email:
"On 07-14-09 while conducting a biannual inventory of gauges, licensee discovered that shutter on the Ronan X92-SA-1, Serial No. 74584, was not functioning. The licensee contacted Ronan, who repaired the shutter on 08-05-09. Although the necessary repairs were made, it was found that future service of the shutter would require replacing the current shutter with a new shutter.
"DRH was notified of the incident on 11-04-09 while doing a routine inspection of the licensee. DRH closed out with the licensee and received documentation of the incident."
The gauge contains the isotope Cs-137 with an activity of 20mCi.
