Title	Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	On 11/18/13, at about 1730 EST, a licensee truck carrying a Troxler model # 3411-B (serial #15760) moisture density gauge was stolen. This gauge has an 8 milliCurie Cs-137 source and a 40 milliCurie Am:Be source. The RSO reported that the gauge was properly secured in its case and properly secured to the vehicle. A report has been filed with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department. 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.
