Location : Anniston AD (Army Depot), Annis … Location : Anniston AD (Army Depot), Anniston, AL</br>Date reported to the licensee: 2 Aug 2007 by the Anniston AD RSO</br>Licensed material involved: M114A1 elbow telescopes 2 each. NSN 1240-00-150-8889. Each elbow telescope contains 5.6 curies of tritium ( gaseous form).</br>Historical information: On 30 June, two M102 howitzers left the maintenance repair facility at Anniston Army Depot from bldg. 418. Each howitzer contains a carrying case that contains the M114A1, M140 alignment device and M137 pantel telescope. The M102 howitzers and associated cases were transported to a contractor operated paint facility located on post in bldg 143. The howitzers were to be painted. When work was completed by the contractor, the howitzers and associated carrying cases (containing the tritium fire control devices) were moved to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) shipping area on or about July 23rd. During the week of July 23rd, DLA personnel inspected the howitzers and associated components prior to them being shipped. It was at this time that DLA discovered that the M114A1 elbow telescopes were missing from each of the respective cases. The other tritium devices in the carrying case (M140 and M137) were still present. The licensee RSO contacted Army CID on 3 August for assistance in investigating the loss of the devices. Army CID from Ft. McPherson, GA office will begin their investigation on Monday August 6th 2007.</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.
