AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - DAMAGED PORTABLE GAUGE
The following report was received from the State of Utah via email:
"A portable gauge was run over by a compactor at a construction site [located at the University of Utah Business Loop Parking Garage]. The gauge was damaged and required disassembly to withdraw the source. The source was withdrawn to the shielded position. Leak test wipes were taken and sent to a laboratory for analysis. The [Licensee] RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] placed the gauge inside the transport case. The RSO verified transport index readings were normal. The RSO transported the gauge to the licensee's facility and stored it until the leak test results were verified to be below 0.005 microcuries. Additional information and photographs will be forthcoming."
