Title	Florida Agreement State Report - Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The following information was obtained from the State of Florida via facsimile: [The State of Florida] received a report from the company's RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] that a soil moisture density gauge and case was stolen. The licensee parked their truck and left the gauge unattended. Owner still has keys to case and gauge. Unknown as of yet if gauge was chained and locked to vehicle. Licensee will offer a reward. Local police have been notified and licensee is currently awaiting their arrival. Incident assigned to Miami Inspection Office for investigation. The gauge was a Troxler Moisture Density gauge, model 3440, serial number 37225. The gauge has a 40 mCi AmBe-141 source and a 8 mCi Cs-137 source. Florida incident number: FL10-070 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.
