The units of TI are mrem per hour at 1 meter from the container exterior
surface.  TI is a dose rate.

Hi group,

I am wondering if anyone out there could tell me what the units for the
transport index would be for a radioactive material shipment (U-235/U-238)
coming from France.  Let me know privately, unless you feel that others
would benefit from this information.  Thanks!

Lorna
