[ RadSafe ] Inquiry about storing mixed waste

[sstewar3 at rdg.boehringer-ingelheim.com]

Dear Radsafers,

I believe this was touched up on briefly last week, but could someone please
point me to the regulation that states how mixed radioactive/chemical waste
can be stored and how long one can hold onto mixed hazardous waste?

Thank you,

Subject: [ RadSafe ] Portable Gamma Spectrometry Instrumentation

Hello everyone,

I'm in need of some input concerning portable gamma spec  
instrumentation. Our radiation safety program is considering the  
purchase of a portable gamma radiation identification system.  
Previously we purchased an URSA II for general laboratory use. It has  
been a good instrument but is lacking in the portability department.

After reviewing several different manufactures (Canberra, Polismart,  
Berkely Nucleonics, etc.) My interest was peaked by the Canberra  
Inspector 1000. It seems to meet all our requirements for a good  
portable instrument. Have any of you had the fortune of using this  
particular instrument? Perhaps Comparable instruments? If so your  
feedback and insight   would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
