| Title | Agreement State Report - Stolen Moisture Density Gauge |
| Event Description | The following was received from the State of Arizona via email:
On June 16, 2014, the Agency [State of Arizona] was notified of the theft of a Troxler Model 3450 Moisture-Density gauge Serial Number 533, from a locked box on a pickup truck parked in a secure area of the licensee facility. Other equipment was also stolen from the truck. The locks and one hasp and a gate lock were ground off. The theft occurred over the June 14 -15 weekend. The investigation into this event is ongoing. The AZ Governor's Office, FBI, US NRC, and the states of CA, NV, CO, and NM are being notified of this event. First Notice: 14-014 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. For additional information go to http://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/publications/PDF/Pub1227_web.pdf Note: This device is assigned an IAEA Category 3 value based on the actual radioactivity of the source, not on the device type.
