Section 337.2090 Reporting of Events
a) The
licensee shall immediately notify the LLEA after determining that an
unauthorized entry resulted in an actual or attempted theft, sabotage or
diversion of a category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material.
Immediately after initiating a response, but not at the expense of causing
delay or interfering with the LLEA response to the event, the licensee shall
notify IEMA at (217)782-7860 or (800)782-7860. In no case shall the
notification to IEMA be later than one hour after the discovery of any
attempted or actual theft, sabotage or diversion.
b) The
licensee shall assess any suspicious activity related to possible theft,
sabotage or diversion of a category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material
and notify the LLEA as appropriate. As soon as possible, but not later than one
hour after notifying the LLEA, the licensee shall notify IEMA at (217)782-7860
or (800)782-7860.
c) Written
Reports. A licensee required to make a notification pursuant to subsection (a)
or (b) shall, within 30 days after making the notification, submit a written
report to IEMA regarding the suspicious activity or the actual or attempted
theft, sabotage or diversion. The written report shall include sufficient
information for IEMA analysis and evaluation, including:
1) A
description of the source of radiation involved, including the kind, quantity
and chemical and physical form;
2) A
description of the circumstances under which the actual or attempted theft,
sabotage or diversion of a category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material
occurred;
3) A
statement of disposition, or probable disposition, of the source of radiation
involved;
4) Exposures
of individuals to radiation, circumstances under which the exposures occurred,
and the possible total effective dose equivalent to persons in unrestricted
areas;
5) Actions
that have been taken, or will be taken, to recover the source of radiation; and
6) Corrective
actions taken, or that will be taken, to protect against a recurrence of a
theft, sabotage or diversion of a category 1 or category 2 quantity of
radioactive material.
d) Subsequent
to filing the written report, the licensee shall also report any additional
substantive information on the actual or attempted theft, sabotage or diversion
of a category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material within 30 days
after the licensee learns of that information.
e) The
licensee shall prepare any report filed with IEMA pursuant to this Section so
that names of individuals who may have received exposure to radiation are
stated in a separate and detachable portion of the written report.
