Radsafers, Thanks to all who replied to my request for information on
shipping a self-contained irradiator. In my case, my client wishes to ship a
Cs-137 irradiator that would require an overpack to make it a suitable DOT shipping
container. Also the sealed source certificate requires the manufacturer (Shepherd)
to set it up upon arrival. Since Shepherd actually takes licensed possession of
the sealed source and becomes the shipper of record, it seemed far easier to
have Shepherd do the entire move and set-up. Regards, Wes Wesley R. Van
Pelt, PhD, CIH, CHP Wesley R. Van Pelt Associates, Inc. Consulting in Radiation Safety and
