Title	Offsite Notification to Other Agencies of Concrete Rubble Container Spill
Event Description	A container of concrete rubble was being transported from the Plant to Palmer, MA where it would eventually be transported via railroad to a waste repository. The intermodal container connection to the trailer broke off allowing the container to fall off spilling contents on the road. The location of the incident is approximately two miles from the Plant at Ford Hill Road, in Rowe, MA. The net weight of the container is 38,860 lbs and it contains low level radioactive concrete. Site Radiation Protection was sent by the licensee to the location of the incident. The spilled concrete rubble will be placed in a new container which will be taken back to the site. Clean up of the area is in progress, and area release is pending a post clean up survey. No one was injured during this incident. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector, the local Fire Department, State and Local government agencies and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A Press Release is being planned to be issued by the licensee.
