| Title | Stolen and Recovered Radioactive Material |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the Florida Department of Health, Bureau of Radiation Control (BRC) via email:
The BRC received a call on Monday, 7/10/2023, at 1335 [EDT], from Miami-Dade Police reporting they found two Troxler gauges in an empty lot next to the incident location address. One gauge belonged to the licensee (Sacyr Construction), the other gauge belonged to another company (see FL23-104) [NRC EN 56617]. Miami-Dade Police on the scene said they had contacted the owner of the gauge and someone was en route to retrieve it. Miami-Dade Police sent pictures of the gauge, and the gauge appeared to be intact. The RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] was contacted on 7/11/2023, and he said one of his employees called him yesterday morning [and stated] that their construction site was broken into over the weekend, and several pieces of equipment were stolen. The RSO stated that the gauge was found before he was able to report it stolen, the gauge is back in their possession, and that there is no damage to the gauge. The BRC Inspector is to conduct a more thorough investigation with each licensee. Florida Incident Number: FL23-103 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.
