| Title | Agreement State Report - Stolen Alloy Analyzer |
| Event Description | An alloy analyzer was stolen between 11:00 and 12:00 on 4/6/2006. The device was in Beaumont, TX and the theft was reported to the local police (case number 069751).
Description: Niton model XL 800, serial # U2184 Source: 10 milliCurie Cd-109 (This was the original activity when purchased five years ago), Source model # XFB3205, Serial # NR6244 Texas Incident Number I-8324 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. This source is not amongst those sources or devices identified by the IAEA Code of Conduct for the Safety & Security of Radioactive Sources to be of concern from a radiological standpoint. Therefore is it being categorized as a less than Category 3 source |
