international rad shipment

["Wendell Rahorst, CIH" <wrahorst@mines.edu>]

Radsafers,

I have a researcher in France that wants to ship a 100 ml of
4-cyanophenol tagged with 250 microcuries of C-14.  I researched the
internation shipping regs and
informed him of required packaging and marking specifications.  Then
sent him to Fedex to carry it to us.  Fedex told him that while it was
legal to ship it, they would
not carry it.  He has told me he has tried several other carriers and
they will not carry it either.  Could someone suggest a international
carrier in France that I could
recommend to him?
