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.

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;

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.
