Title	Agreement State Report - Stolen Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The following report was transmitted by the state via facsimile: Licensee called the Agency [Massachusetts] to report a stolen Troxler gauge, model # 3440 and serial # 21550. Gauge user had the locked transport case and the locked gauge stored inside a personal vehicle for the purpose of driving to a work site scheduled for 11/7/08. The vehicle was parked in Hubbardston, MA overnight (11/6 - 11/7/08). In the morning of 11/7/08, it was discovered that the personal vehicle had been broken into and the transport case and gauge was missing and presumed stolen. Other personal vehicles in the local area also had been broken into on the same night. 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.
