Title	Agreement State Report - Stolen Density Gauge
Event Description	The following report was received from the Arizona Department of Health Services (Department) via email: The Department received notification from the licensee that a Troxler 3411 nuclear density gauge (serial number 07083) was stolen from the back of a licensee's truck. The gauge contains approximately 8 mCi of Cs-137 and 40 mCi of Am-241. The Phoenix police department was notified at approximately 0730 MST [on 10/29/2019] and a police report was filed (Report Number 19-1879828). The Department has requested additional information and continues to investigate the event. Arizona Incident Number: 19-026 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.
