forcebwithu Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 ^^^ Article states the barrels have been recovered. They contained yellowcake, far less dangerous than the caesium-137 still missing in Prachin Buri. Radioactive caesium missing from power plant A bulky tube containing radioactive caesium-137, a highly hazardous isotope, is reported missing from the National Power Plant 5A Company facility in Si Maha Phot district of Prachin Buri, police said. Pol Col Mongkol Thopao, the Si Maha Phot police chief, said that about noon last Friday Kittikhun Pattamakaew, 40, an employee of the company, filed a police complaint. He said it was learned that day that a tube containing caesium-137 that had been attached to a tower tank of the steam power plant was missing. He said Mr Kittikhun did not know when the tube went missing or how it broke loose or was removed from the tank. He said only that caesium-137 was hazarous to people who touched or were exposed to it. The tube containing the isotope was about 20 centimetres in diameter. He worried that if someone had the tube and removed the cover they would be exposed to the hazardous radiation. ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australian authorities have located a missing radioactive capsule after a six-day search. The dangerously radioactive object fell off a mining truck in January, sparking a massive hunt. The search for the pea-sized capsule stretched along 870 miles of highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forcebwithu Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 The Thai are probably using the GT200 to look for the missing caesium. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcebwithu Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Looks like they may have found the missing caesium-137. Wonder what it will take to decontaminate a steel melting plant. Steel melting plant closed, hazardous isotope detected Local authorities closed a steel melting plant in tambon Hat Nang Kaeo of Kabin Buri district on Sunday after they detected radioactive caesium-137 there. It registered on a detector while officials from the Office of Atoms for Peace (OAP) were checking local steel melting plants, looking for a missing tube containing caesium-137, officials said. The bulky tube of the radioactive isotope was reported on March 10 to be missing from a National Power Plant 5A Company facility in the 304 Industrial Park in tambon Tha Tum of Si Maha Phot district. It is about 13 centimetres in diameter and 20cm in length and weighs 25 kilogrammes. Local authorities on Sunday withheld the name of the steel melting plant. Prachin Buri governor Narong Nakhonchinda said he would release further details on Monday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in practical terms, I haven't seen a comparison of the measured strength and the "safe" daily dose or perhaps I just didn't read "far enough down the page" I await the investigative journalists from The Pattaya News to delve deep into the facts of the story and let us know the truth !

Think they found the idiot who unwittingly stole the caesium. No tube in truck, guard tells cops Police have questioned a security guard working at the steam power plant in Prachin Buri's Sri Maha Phot district where a bulky tube containing radioactive caesium-137, a highly hazardous isotope, went missing. As the search for the missing metal tube has continued for over a week now, the provincial administrative office has doubled the reward being offered to anyone who provides information leading to its discovery. The reward is now set at 100,000 baht. The security guard told investigators during questioning that he had taken a pickup truck on Feb 11 to be washed at a car care shop, but there was no heavy metal tube in the truck bed as the car care shop people claimed. The police let the guard go after the interrogation. Earlier, Somchet Rasimin, the shop owner, told police he remembered seeing a guard visit his shop for a car wash service. The owner spotted a metal tube in the bed of his truck, which looked similar to the one he had since seen in news reports. When police showed them a picture of the missing tube, other staff said the same. They also tried moving it, but it was too heavy, they said. "We usually remove things from the truck bed so we can wash it with foam and water; but that tube, sitting in the right corner, was heavy and didn't budge," said Mr Somchet. The guard was still wearing his uniform when he arrived at the car care shop at about 8am that day, said Mr Somchet. Kitkawin Aramrun, head of the Emergency Operation Centre of the Office of Atoms of Peace, said the search is continuing mainly inside the power plant and places nearby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
