Title	Agreement State Report on a Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The State provided the following information via facsimile: The State of Nevada reported that a moisture density gauge (CPN Model MC-3, s/n M37037489 with a 50 millicurie Am-241:Be source and a 10 millicurie Cs-137 source) was stolen from a licensee technician's truck. The gauge was locked in the technician's truck at his home. The technician found that the lock had been cut and the gauge stolen sometime over the weekend. The licensee has reported the incident to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department. Nevada State Report Number NV-05-007. * * UPDATE PROVIDED BY MATUS TO ROTTON AT 1737 EST ON 11/21/05 * * * The State provided the following information via facsimile: The gauge was recovered on 11/18/05 from an impounded vehicle at Ewing Brothers Tow Service in Las Vegas, NV and released to the licensee. Notified R4DO (Smith), NMSS EO (Holahan), and TAS (Danis via email) This is less than the quantity of an IAEA Category 3 source. Sources that are 'Less than IAEA Category 3 sources,' are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. For some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are IAEA Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
