FAILED LEAK TEST ON STATIC GUN GOING TO DISPOSAL
Stora Neso was in the process of disposing of a Chapman Manufacturing (no longer in business) static gun containing 200 millicuries of tritium (when manufactured in September 1965). Stora Neso does not have a requirement to leak test the static gun, which had not been used for a long time. The disposal site requested a leak test. The static gun was wipe tested and the following results were obtained: wet wipe read 0.311409 microcuries and the dry wipe read 0.0556399 microcuries, the action level is 0.005 microcuries. They have taken additional wipes of the gun and container whose results are not available at the time of the report. They have also contacted a testing company to determine what the wipes are actually were measuring.
* * * RETRACTION ON 10/22/02 AT 1210 EDT FROM CHUCK CHAPMAN TO GERRY WAIG
After discussion between the licensee and NRC Region 3 personnel, the licensee retracted this event on 10/22/02 at 1210 EDT. Notified R3DO (Christine Lipa) and NMSS (Doug Broaddus).
