Re: Uranyl Acetate- continues

     Uranyl Acetate rolls on --
     
     Isn't it interesting that in the RQ table, the asterick beside Uranyl 
     Acetate  indicates that this material "appears by name in the 
     Hazardous Materials Table", however, in my version of 49CFR172.101, 
     Hazardous Materials Table, the table goes from Uranium Metal, 
     pyphoric, Class 7, UN 2979 to Uranyl nitrate hexahydrate solution, 
     class 7, UN 2980 (1992 version - if someone has a newer version, 
     please let me know!).  Wonder what happened?
     
     Regards and standard type disclaimers
