Title	Recovered Loose Source for Flow Meter
Event Description	The following is a summary of information provided by the Florida Bureau of Radiation Control (BRC) via telephone and email: Mineral Development Safety Officer notified the BRC the morning of 8/28/23, of a 50 mCi [Cs-137] source that had fallen out of a Endress Hauser flow density gamma meter due to vibration. The source was on the ground adjacent to the meter. The area was secured and excluded. Mineral Development has no radiological survey meters onsite and a BRC manager and inspector were sent to investigate and secure the source. On 8/29/23, a BRC inspector returned to the site and verified that a local representative from Qal-Tek had returned the source to the shielded position within the gamma meter. The meter will remain out of service until its subsequent removal from the piping system. The BRC verified that Endress Hauser sold the gauge to Mineral Development, but the sale was not reported to the BRC by any party. Florida Incident Number: FL23-131
