LOST/STOLEN CS-137 SOURCE
The Cs-137 source (116.4 microCuries) is kept in a lead container, in an unlocked lead-lined drawer, in a key coded cipher locked room. At 06:48 on 08/12/05, the daily quality control dose calibration was performed. At 09:31 on 8/13/05, the source and its lead container were discovered missing. Security personnel have reviewed video surveillance tapes for nearby corridors but the hall outside the source's room is not surveilled. The video tapes indicate that the only personnel within the area were Security personnel. Staff and technicians with access to the room were interviewed and none had knowledge of the incident.
Cardinal Health was contacted and verified that the source had not accidentally been returned to Cardinal Health.
The door to the source's room is labeled and locked.
The RSO has been notified and the Dover Police will be notified.
