| Event Description | The following information was received from the state of Florida via email:
The state of Kentucky Radiation Health [Branch] faxed a report of rejection of an UBC [used beverage can) bale from Logan Aluminum of KY, originating from Republic Services of Jacksonville, FL. The radiation measurement was 1200 cps (also reported as 0.7 mR/hr.) midway of the enclosed trailer. Background measured 121 cps. DOT-SP 10656 KY-FL-20-001 was issued. Per [an employee] of Republic Services, this load was comprised of household curbside waste, and 'people put whatever they want in there.' Only one bale was higher than background. The rest of load successfully resubmitted. Update: This bale was returned to Florida for investigation, whereupon [the Radiation Safety Officer at Republic Services] reached out to the [Headquarters Operations Officer at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission], who transferred him to the BRC [Florida Bureau of Radiation Control]. Florida BRC will be conducting a follow-up investigation. Florida Incident Number: FL20-051 |
