The yard made the initial contact and had the individual with the load talk to DHFS before leaving the yard. A hand monitor (survey) gave radiation reading of 200 microR/hr on the outside of the trailer. A metal tank was observed where the reading was noted. He was told to off load and cover it with plastic until DHFS responds. The individual with the rejected load contacted DHFS on 10/01/07 requesting what to do about the load.
