Title	Agreement State Report - Troxler Gauge Stolen from Truck at Residence
Event Description	The State of Florida was notified at 0630 EST on 2/6/14, that the cab of a gauge user's truck was broken into and the case containing a Troxler Moisture-Density Gauge was stolen overnight at the gauge user's residence located in West Palm Beach, FL. The gauge, a model 3440, was properly stowed and locked in its case. This gauge contained 5.7 mCi of Cs-137, and 39.1 mCi of Am-241:Be. Local Law Enforcement is on-scene conducting an investigation. 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.
