Title	Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The following was received from the State of Kansas via facsimile: Case number: KS090005. Kansas Division of Emergency Management reported that the duty officer received a call at 5:29 on 6/9/09 from licensee that a moisture density gauge had been stolen from a job site in Roeland Park, KS, Johnson County, on 6/6/09. The Roeland Park police were notified at 5:12 pm on 6/9/09. [The responding officer] stated he observed the vehicle and chains used to secure the gauge. The chains were rusty and did not appear to have been tampered with (no scrape marks or areas where the rust had been disturbed). The licensee employee stated the gauge transport case was secured by the chains through the handles. KDHE [Kansas Department of Health and Environment] was notified 0905 6/10/09. The gauge was a Humboldt Scientific model number 5001, with sealed sources of 50 mCi Am-241:BE and 11 mCi Cs-137. 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.
