Title	Damaged Troxler Gauge
Event Description	At approximately 0940 EDT on 05/13/04, an employee set a Troxler Moisture Density Gauge (Model: 3411B, S/N: 9031, containing an 8 milliCurie Cs-137 (S/N: 750-3440) and a 40 milliCurie Am-241:Be (S/N: 47-5500) source) down to prepare for testing. Another contractor in a pick-up truck drove through and knocked over the gauge. The source was in the locked position when the gauge was knocked over. The employee cordoned off the area and checked the gauge for damage. The gauge had little damage but the source appears to be bent in the stowed position. The gauge will be sent to NorthEast Technical Services for repair or decommissioning.
