The gauge was locked inside a transport case, the transport case was chained, blocked, & braced in the camper shell. The gauge user does not remember if the door to the camper shell was locked. The gauge user had not secured and locked the club to the steering wheel and he does not think the handle of the gauge was locked. The driver discovered the theft around 0515 this morning when he returned to his vehicle after being in a donut shop for approximately 10 minutes. The donut shop is located in Bellflower on the corner of Alondra and Eucalyptus. The Lakewood Police Department were notified and they took the report of the theft. The RSO was asked to notify (California Radiological Health Branch) immediately if the gauge was recovered. The licensee will be cited for failing to properly secure the gauge. Corrective actions: The licensee will counsel the gauge user, will provide refresher training to all gauge users on the required security of the gauge while in transit, and will perform unannounced inspections of each gauge user's vehicle to ensure they are following the company's established policies and procedures regarding the security of gauges while in transit." </br>Lakewood Police Report #: 607-14202-1337-093</br>THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A "LESS THAN CAT 3" LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL</br>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.
