EN Revision Text: AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - LOST SHIPMENT OF H-3 SOURCES (WATCHES)
The following information was provided by the Maine Radiation Control Program via email:
"Maine Radiation Control Program was notified by the licensee (Digilistics) at 1321 [EDT] on Monday, September 26, 2022, [that] a shipment of nine boxes of watches was sent via [a common carrier] from Keytime Enterprises LTD of Hong Kong, China to Time Concepts of Boise, ID. One of the nine packages was not delivered by [the common carrier] to the consignee. The licensee was notified on September 5, 2022, and the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) contacted [the common carrier] several times in an attempt to track down the missing package. The RSO received a voicemail from [the common carrier] on or about September 13, 2022, stating that [the common carrier] was officially unable to locate the package. The package contained a total of 84 H-3 watches with an activity of 25 mCi each for a total of 2,100 mCi or 2.1 Curies. Time Concepts has filed a claim with [the common carrier] for the lost watches."

The following information was provided by the Maine Radiation Control Program via email:
"Missing watches were delivered to the licensee on Monday, October 31, 2022."
Notified R1DO (Lilliendahl). Notified via email: NMSS Event Notification and ILTAB
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.

AUTOMATIC REACTOR TRIP DUE TO TURBINE TRIP
The following information was provided by the licensee via email:
"At 2345 CDT, Unit 1 Reactor tripped due to a turbine trip. All auxiliary feedwater pumps started due to steam generator Lo Lo levels.
"Unit 1 is being maintained in Hot Standby (Mode 3) in accordance with Integrated Plant Operating Procedure IPO-007A. The Emergency Response Guideline procedure has been exited. Decay heat is being rejected to the main condenser via steam dump valves.
"The cause of the Turbine Trip is currently under investigation."
The following additional information was obtained from the licensee in accordance with Headquarters Operations Officers Report Guidance:
NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. Unit 2 is unaffected by this event.
