Radium Needles -Reply

[Pam Davis <PDAVIS@pantex.com>]

Does the Recycler have a radioactive material license?  If not they need
to find out how the material arrived on their site and they probably need
to have a license to receive the needles dependent upon the activity.

Looking for information to help out a Hazardous Waste recycling
company on
disposing of an unknown activity/quantity of radium needles located in
the
Dallas TX area. 

Currently the material is in locked storage and all the info I currently
have suggest that the needles are unused, contained in a 55 gallon drum.
Does anyone have a broker contact in the Dallas- Worth area that I can
put
this company in contact with?
