Title	Oregon Agreement State Report - Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	An Oregon state licensee reported that a Campbell Pacific moisture density gauge model CPN-MC3 (serial number MC380304170) was stolen from a jobsite in Merlin, OR sometime late last night or early this morning. The licensee reported that the gauge was properly secured in a temporary storage building when the building was burglarized. The gauge and other equipment were stolen during the burglary. The licensee has contacted the local police department. The gauge contains 10 mCi of Cs-137 and 10 mCi of Am-241/Be. The state of Oregon will be contacting state and county officials to request public notification about the stolen gauge. 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.
