Title	Agreement State Report - Moisture Gauge Stolen and Later Recovered
Event Description	The following report was received via e-mail: Yesterday, we [North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services] had a stolen gauge incident here in NC. The gauge was recovered the same day. The gauge in question is a Troxler portable nuclear gauge, model 4640B. This gauge has a sealed source with 9 milliCuries of Cesium 137. We have uploaded a record of this incident to NMED. Our local incident number for this event is NC140039. What follows is a brief narrative supplied by one of our inspectors: At 0745 [EDT] this morning [a North Carolina inspector] received a phone call from the assistant to the RSO at Barnhill Contracting: At approximately 2300 [EDT] October 13, 2014 on exit 22 off I-95 in Lumberton, NC, one of their trucks with a PNG [portable nuclear gauge] was stolen. The employee had stepped away from the truck to speak with the project foreman when an individual jumped into the truck and drove off. The Lumberton police and the RSO were contacted. The RSO contacted the Division of Emergency Management at 919-825-2500. The RSO travelled to the site. The truck, with the gauge still locked and secured, was located by the Lumberton Police within about an hour and a half. The individual ran from the scene when the police located the truck. It appears the only thing stolen was the light from the top of the truck. The gauge was still securely locked in the metal box on the back of the truck. There were no injuries reported. The RSO again notified the Division of Emergency Management that the gauge had been found. [The assistant RSO] will forward a copy of the police report (#14-42002) to [the State] when she receives it.
