Title	Agreement State - Lost Static Eliminators
Event Description	The following information was provided by the Texas Department of State Health Services (the Department) via email: On July 13, 2023, the Department was contacted by the Biomeric's quality assurance scientist, who stated she could not find two generally licensed devices. The devices are P-2024-1000 static eliminators. The devices were used to remove static electricity on small plastic parts. The devices were discovered missing during an inventory of devices that were to be replaced. The company stated the devices did not pose a risk of exposure to any individual. The company searched for the devices, but was unable to locate them. The company has implemented a monthly inventory program to keep better track of the devices. The devices will be centrally located when in storage from now on. Texas Incident Number: 10039 Texas NMED Number: TX230034 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.
