EN Revision Text: AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - DAMAGED GAUGE

The following was received from the state of Oklahoma via e-mail:

"On Sept. 1, 2021 at approximately 1730 CST, [the State] was informed of an incident involving a nuclear gauge which fell from a truck and bent the source rod to the extent that it could not be operated. The source rod was in the shielded position at the time. [It is] believed this occurred sometime the previous day. We will provide more information as it becomes available."
