Title	Agreement State Report - Stolen Troxler Moisture Density Gauge
Event Description	The following information was reported to the Operations Center by Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality: On August 19, 2003, the licensee RSO [Radiation Safety Officer] conducted a biweekly inventory of his gauges and discovered that one of them was missing. Upon investigation he discovered that the gauge, a Troxler 3411B, S/N 6322, was last used on August 8, 2003. The next day, the technician who used the gauge took the gauge out to his truck and, preparing to go to a jobsite, loaded the gauge into the toolbox bolted to [the] bed of the truck. He left the tool box unlocked while he helped another worker unload, then discovered the gauge was missing when he returned. He had since decided not to work that day. He did not report this to anyone because he assumed that the other worker had taken the gauge out on the job with him. The licensee has contacted the police and has prepared a press release offering a reward for return of the gauge. According to the licensee, the gauge contained 281.2 Mega Becquerels of activity [7.6 milliCuries] as of 5/15/83. The gauge was not in its transport case and the gauge plunger was apparently unlocked when stolen." The Troxler contained an Am: Be source, S/N CAA-2493 and a CS-137 source, S/N CC-3452. Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality is considering issuing a press release to its border states. The licensee will be offering a reward for the return of the gauge. The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality has notified NRC Region 4 (Linda McLean).
