Title	Maryland Agreement State Report - Stolen Lead Paint Analyzer
Event Description	The following information was received from the State of Maryland via email: The Maryland Radiation Program received a telephone call around 3:55 p.m. [EST] from [the RSO] of Arc Environmental (MD-07-199-01) informing the Department [Maryland Department of the Environment] that an XRF (RMD LPA1) was stolen from 2611 East Monument Street, Baltimore, Maryland where they were performing an inspection. The theft occurred at about 2:40 p.m. when the two inspectors, [names deleted], were leaving the site. They thought the other had put the XRF in the vehicle, and when they realized they did not have it, returned to the site, but the XRF was gone. They will provide the Department a copy of the police report when it is available. MDE may put out a press release on 1/28/14 if the device is not recovered. Per the vendor documentation, the LPA1 nominally contains 12 mCi of Co-57. 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.
