RE: NJ Gets Seaport Radiation Detector

["Tsurikov, Nick" <Nick.Tsurikov@iluka.com>]

Dear Michael,



You comment is probably valid but there are many things that are shipped

across the globe that have nothing to do with weapons but would trigger

detectors at, say, scrap metal yard.  Examples would be minerals like

tantalum concentrate or heavy mineral sands.  



OK, if there is any information out there it should probably be not

posted openly...  but - can we please have some contact

addresses/names/e-mails/phone no's/etc of whom to ask?



If the limits are set too low, the shipping of minerals mined outside US

to numerous processing facilities would be quite impossible.  If anyone

has any contacts with people enacting the 'seaport detector' thing -

could you please ask them to do it having NORM-TENORM stuff in mind?



Kind regards

Come on now! We already told the terrorists they should not use Port

Elizabeth to send their radiological weapons, now we should tell them

the limits of the detectors so they can try sneak something past them. 



I really hopes no one provides this information or even speculates.  I

live 20 miles west of the World Trade Center site, I saw the plume on

9/11 against the brilliant blue sky.  On 9/12, I could smell the plume

from my front yard.  We live in a different world, please control your

curiosity.
