Title	Agreement State Report - Stolen Moisture Density Gauges
Event Description	[The State of Florida] received a report from the company's RSO at 0945 that three soil moisture density gauges and cases were stolen. [A] Conex box at [the] site was locked and broken into. All three gauges were chained and locked to [the] interior of [the] Conex box. All three locks were broken. [The] cases were locked with the gauges inside when stored. [The] owner still has keys to the cases and gauges. [The] licensee will offer a reward. Local police have been notified and [the] licensee is currently awaiting their arrival. All three stolen gauges were Troxler Model 3430, Serial Numbers 31318, 25778, and 19575. Each gauge contained a 40 mCi AmBe source and a 8 mCi Cs-137 source. FL:10-067 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.
