Re: Sources in WTC

["Bjorn Cedervall" <bcradsafers@HOTMAIL.COM>]

>I heard on this evening's news that the authorities are now concerned

about the possiblity of medical and dental sources in the wreckage of

the WTC.  Has anyone heard anything more?  Are there any HPs working the

site?

This is probably not a real problem here. The exception would be 

radiotherapy sources like Co 60 but such facilities were likely not there (I 

am sure that some Radsafer or other person can confirm). I doubt dentists 

work with strong radioactive sources.



This aspect may however be a consideration in other types of catastrophic 

events.
