Title	Source Inadvertently Shipped
Event Description	The following information was provided by the Ohio Department of Health via email: [The] licensee (NDC Technologies, Inc.) inadvertently shipped a 150 mCi Am-241 source to a customer in Germany. Only the electronic portion of the gauge should have been shipped to that customer. The source was [intended] to be shipped separately to a separate licensed facility in Germany. The source was not handled at the facility in Germany and was immediately sent back. The source has arrived at the NDC facility in Dayton. Ohio Reference Number: OH220012 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.
