Title	Florida Agreement State Report - Stolen Troxler Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	While licensee employees were eating at a restaurant located at 8363 W. Flagler Street, Miami, FL, the licensee's Troxler moisture density gauge was stolen from the bed of the pickup truck. The licensee reported that the gauge sources were in the stored position, the handle for the gauge was locked and the transport case was locked and chained to the bed of the truck. The chain had been cut and the gauge was missing after returning to the truck after eating. The Troxler was a model 3440, Serial number 24153 containing 8 millicuries of Cs-137 and 40 millicuries of Am-241/Be. The licensee notified the Miami Police Department, but they had not arrived at the scene at the time of this report. The State of Florida will be conducting an investigation into this incident. Florida Incident Number: FL06-75 THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A "LESS THAN CAT 3" LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL 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. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are 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.
