The maximum reading was found on the top surface of the cask. The shipment appeared to be in noncompliance with 49 CFR 173.393 (1)

which specifies that the dose rate at any point on the external surface of the package should not exceed 200 millirem per hou. A survey at six feet from the outer edges of the trailer showed a maximum reading of 22 mR/hr. The NRC #000358 instrument was use The shipment appeared to be in noncompliance with 49 CFR 173.393 (j)(3) which requires that the radiation level at six feet from the vertical planes projected from the outer edges of the vehicle does not exceed 10 millirem per hou. The levels in the cab were 2 mR/hr at the back wall of the sleeper and 1 mR/hr in the driver's sea *g. The cask was a model B-2 transport cask with certificate number 6144 and package identification number USA/6144/B.
