HOPE CREEK TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER REMOVED FROM SERVICE FOR PLANNED MAINTENANCE
"On June 9, 2015 at 0310 [EDT] the Hope Creek Technical Support Center (TSC) ventilation system was removed from service to perform planned maintenance. The removal of the ventilation potentially affects the TSC habitability during a declared emergency requiring activation. Appropriate compensatory measures are in place while the ventilation is out of service. The Emergency Response Organization duty team has been notified of the maintenance and the possible need to activate in an alternate location. The ventilation system is scheduled to be out of service for approximately 93 hours.
"The NRC Resident Inspector and Lower Alloways Creek Township will be notified."

AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - LOST CD-109 SOURCE
The following report was received from the California Radiation Health Branch via email:
"Stanford University RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] informed RHB [California Radiation Health Branch] that a 0.285 mCi Cd-109 source had been lost."
The licensee has implemented corrective actions to bolster inventory accountability.
California 5010 Number: 062515
THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A "LESS THAN CAT 3" LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL
Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
