| STOLEN PROCESS GAUGE |
| |
| A representative of Best Foods called the NRC Operations Center to report |
| the apparent theft of a process gauge. The device, a Filtec model CI-2GV |
| case inspector (serial #75009), could not be located for its triennial |
| leakage test. The gauge contains a 100 millicurie Am-241 source (source |
| #3428). The gauge was last swipe tested in 1996. The gauge was a spare, and |
| has been kept in a storage area with other spare parts. The caller was |
| unsure whether a police report would be filed. |
