Title	Agreement State Report - Lost Radioactive Material
Event Description	{{#Wiki_filter:The following information was received from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts via facsimile: A package containing 250 �Ci P-32 was lost at Dana Farber. The package was delivered and the RP (Radiopharmaceutical) department performed a receipt survey. The package was then carried to laboratory 714. The deliverer claimed he gave it to someone in the lab. Laboratory personnel claimed not to have received it. The RP department has conducted an unsuccessful search to locate the package. Massachusetts No. MA-09 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. }}
