| Event Description | The following information was obtained from the state of Colorado via email:
The general license section of the Radioactive Materials Program [at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE)] sent out annual notifications requesting response regarding a Cobalt 57, 0.165 mCi, FA4C Analyzer Source serial #C9285 distributed under Edax Portable Products Division back in July 22, 1996. After 10 years of sending a report requesting information to the [business] address with no response, our [CDPHE] general license section is closing out this record." Colorado Event Report ID No.: CO17-0007 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.
