Title	Agreement State Report - Lost Source
Event Description	The following was received from the State of New Jersey via email: An inspection of Evoqua Water Technologies was conducted on 4/30/15. During the inspection, a device listed on Generally Licensed Device Registration Form #664 could not be found. The device was a model 4000 [SN 732], manufactured by Metorex Inc, and contained 10 mCi of Am-241. The device was listed as being at the facility since 1989. However, no current employee remembered the device being in use for several years. On 5/15/15, the original unit was discovered, but without the attached probe which contained the source. On 6/4/15, after repeated search attempts, the probe was declared lost. 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.
