AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - DAMAGED GAUGE
The following is a summary of information received from the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control [the Department] via email:
At 1420 EDT on October 10, 2022, the Department received a call from Summit Engineering (the licensee) to report that at approximately 1230 EDT, a double pin road roller used for paving hit a Troxler 3440 gauge (SN #34989), cracking its plastic outer covering. The licensee's radiation safety officer arrived onsite and arranged to have the gauge transported back to the licensee's office. The Department traveled to the licensee's office to survey the damaged gauge. The Department found the gauge's source in the shielded position and surveys read no higher than 8 mR/hr on the surface of the gauge and no higher than 0.06 mR/hr at a foot away. The licensee stated that the gauge would be sent back to the manufacture for repair.
