Title	Agreement State Report - Lost Moisture Density Gauges Recovered
Event Description	The following was received from the state via email: The duty officer was notified 1125 this morning of the theft and apparent recovery of two soil moisture density gauges in Miami, Fl at about 4 am this morning. Thieves broke into a locked Conex at a FL DOT job location on SR 826 between Bird & Flagler. They broke into the locked cabinet in which the gauges were stored. They then broke into the locked transportation boxes and took two gauges belonging to two licensees. The first licensee is A Squared Group, license # 3727-2. Gauge was a CPN model MC-3, SN 350808026, Cs-137/AmBe sources 10/50 millicuries. The second licensee is Metric Engineering, license # 1704-1. Gauge was a Troxler model 3440, SN 37243, Cs-137/AmBe sources 10/40 millicuries. Miami-Dade PD apprehended the thieves as they were departing the storage site. The licensees believe the gauges are in the vehicle which has been impounded by Miami-Dade PD. They are trying to get access to the car to confirm that the gauges are there, but the PD has denied them access to this point. Licensees will call when they have confirmed the gauges are in the car and when they have been returned to their possession. Licensees will also submit a written report on this occurrence. Florida continues to investigate this incident. * * UPDATE FROM ADAMS TO SNYDER AT 1358 ON 4/23/06 * * * The following was received from the state via email: Both licensees have possession of their gauges. They appear undamaged. The gauges will be leak tested and checked for functionality. Notified R1DO (Holody) and NMSS EO (Janosko). 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.
