Title	Unaccounted for Source Range Monitor Detector
Event Description	During annual physical inventory of Special Nuclear Material (SNM) conducted at Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS), a replacement Source Range Monitor (SRM) detector could not be accounted for. The SRM detector was being stored in the refuel floor storage locker after maintenance activities during RF18. This detector did not function and was removed prior to the start-up therefore, the SRM detector was not subjected to a critical reactor. Actions continue to locate the missing SRM detector. There is no evidence of sabotage or tampering associated with this activity. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. 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. For additional information go to http://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/publications/PDF/Pub1227_web.pdf This source is not amongst those sources or devices identified by the IAEA Code of Conduct for the Safety & Security of Radioactive Sources to be of concern from a radiological standpoint. Therefore is it being categorized as a less than Category 3 source
