Title	Damaged Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The following information was provided by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (the Department) via email: On 09/26/2024, the Department was notified by the CTL/Thompson, Inc. radiation safety officer (RSO) that a possible incident with a moisture density gauge occurred at a job site in Granby, CO. The RSO stated he had no further information to provide [about the event]. The Department compliance lead spoke with the RSO over the phone and identified the assistant RSO (ARSO) over that job site. [When contacted] the ARSO stated that a technician was driving on a job site when the incident occurred. The latches were closed on the transportation case, but not fixed with locks since additional testing was going to be performed. While driving over the uneven terrain of the job site, the truck jostled causing the tailgate to open and the transportation case flipped over towards the edge of the truck bed. The latches on the transport case released and caused the gauge (Troxler model 3430, 8 mCi Cs-137, 40 mCi Am-241/Be) to come out and land on the ground, resulting in damage to the gauge.
