Title	Theft of Seaman Model C-200 Nuclear Density Gauge
Event Description	A technician for Patriot Engineering and Environmental, Inc. took possession of a Seaman Model C-200 (Serial # L-102) nuclear density gauge on the evening of 3/31/2014 for use at a jobsite the next day. He secured the gauge in the back of his pickup truck with a chain and 3 padlocks. Two of the padlocks secured the gauge to the bed of the pickup truck and the third padlock secured the wrapped chain to the device. Between 0100 EDT and 0730 EDT on the morning of 4/1/2014, the gauge was stolen from the back of the pickup truck. Indianapolis Metro Police Department was contacted and they are investigating. The gauge contains 4.5 mCi of Radium 226 (Source Serial # B8633) 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.
