| Title | Licensee Reported a Lost Troxler Gauge Model 3430 |
| Event Description | A technician for the Craig Testing Laboratory placed a Troxler gauge model 3430 and its transportation box into the back of his pickup securing it with a chain, however he did not latch the top of the box or close his truck's tailgate. When he drove from the job site in Pocoson, PA., he heard a noise but he did not stop until he reached a stop light (approx 2 miles away). He got out of the truck and noticed the transport box was dangling from the back of the truck still attached to the chain, but without the Troxler gauge inside. He retraced his route, but there was no Troxler gauge. The Troxler gauge (SN # 25540) contained 8 millicuries of Cs-137 and 40 millicuries of Am/Be-241. The local police Department was notified. |
