There is some radioactive powder that is currently in a lab storage closet. It has been shielded with lead plates in a metal filing cabinet, and is following regulations. However, we would like to remove the item from the premises. Is there anyone who knows of a special facility to dispose of this item? Thank you for your assistance

Sincerely,

Michelle

I would like to start a question.

As we train and do audits, we find issues of hazardous chemicals being handled and stored improperly at many foreign sites. The =E2=80=98guidance' is to segregate, keep apart, isolate for the various hazard classes. The factories are asking good questions as to whether we can further define these words: segregate, keep apart, isolate - that is where I am seeking help. I have the =E2=80=98definitions' from U.S.. DOT, IMDG, NFPA. Somewhat helpful but not definitive for factories. Can anyone offer some guidance? Good reference(s) we can provide to the global supply chain?
