The following information was provided by … The following information was provided by the New Jersey Radiation Protection And Release Prevention Program (NJDEP) via email:</br>On 1/23/2025, the Bureau of Environmental Radiation was notified that a load of municipal solid waste was rejected at a landfill in Dunmore, PA for triggering radiation alarms. The waste was originally hauled by JP Mascaro in Mt. Olive, NJ. A maximum exposure rate on contact with the truck of 4.7 mrem/hr was observed. A Department of Transportation special permit was issued to permit the load to return to JP Mascaro. </br>On 1/31/2025, NJDEP was notified via email by JP Mascaro that the load had been sorted, and a package containing a shipment of 1.54 Ci of I-131 was identified. This was a shipment from a radiopharmacy in Quebec, Canada bound for Nuclear Diagnostic Products (NDP). According to tracking information provided by the common carrier, the package arrived successfully at the facility in Budd Lake, NJ, and was marked as out for delivery before it went missing.</br>On 2/3/2025, NJDEP contacted NDP to alert them of the missing package. NDP agreed that one of their private couriers would retrieve the package from JP Mascaro.</br>THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A 'Less than Cat 3' LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL</br>Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
