Title	Stolen Gauge
Event Description	The following information was received from the Arizona Department of Health Services (the Department) via email: The Department received notification from the licensee that a portable gauge was stolen. A technician locked a portable gauge in the back of a truck and the truck was locked inside the users garage at their home overnight. When the gauge user came out to go to work the next day, the chain had been cut and the gauge and the gauge transport box were missing. The gauge is a Troxler 3430, Serial Number 34160, containing approximately 8 millicuries of Cesium-137 and 40 millicuries of Americium-241:Beryllium. A police report has been filed. The Department has requested additional information and continues to investigate the event. Arizona Incident No.: 21-004 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.
