Title	Agreement State Report - Potential Contamination Event
Event Description	The State of Texas provided information on a potential contamination event at the Halliburton Energy Services facility in Houston, TX. An employee was working on a well logging tool that contained a 1.3 microCurie Cs-137 source. While removing the Cs-137 sealed source from the tool, an employee noticed a small hole in the Cs-137 capsule. The employee stopped working on the tool, cleared the area, and restricted access to the room where the work was being performed. Contamination swipes were taken in the area and sent to a third party laboratory for analysis. No over exposures were indicated. The initial survey of the worker identified a small area of one of his boots that had some contamination. * * RETRACTION FROM KAREN BLANCHARD TO DONG PARK AT 1030 EST ON 2/27/17 * * * The following event retraction was received from the State of Texas via email: Initial information concerning this event was provided via telephone on 2/26/2017.
