| Title | Missing Troxler Gauge |
| Event Description | After leaving the construction site at the intersection of Highway 74 and Unionville Indian Trail Road, the workers discovered that their Troxler Moisture Density gauge was missing. They returned to the construction site and the gauge was not there. The gauge was a Model 3450 Troxler (s/n 885) with 40 milliCuries Am/Be (s/n 78-515) and 8 milliCuries Cs-137 (s/n 77-261-0). The RSO is investigating. The Troxler was in the "Safe Position" but was not locked.
NC Report number: 05-29.
The missing Troxler gauge was found (08/05/05 @ 0900) on the highway by a member of the public in Rock Hill, SC just over the boarder between NC and SC. The case of the device was damaged, however, the source was not in the exposed position. It is currently in the possession of the licensee and State inspectors are at the site to inspect the gauge. Informed Reg 1 RDO (Harold Gray), NMSS EO (Trish Holahan), and TAS (Roberta Warren) by fax. |
