Need help in finding "Type A" dry Ice packages
littlebittime:
all of the links I provided sold Ice packs...
while we're on the topic... what is Type A? Can someone define it please?

Radwaste2000:
:o A type A package must meet the design requirements for radioactive material per 49 CFR 173.465. Not to leave out 49 CFR 178.350. Type A packages are used for Type A quantity radioactive materials, but may also be used for LSA and Limited Quantity radioactive materials, but seldom are. A calculation must be performed regarding the
isotope(s) and activity to see which criteria are met so you can assign a DOT category (LQ, LSA, Type A, Type B, etc.). Once this is done, a proper shipping name is assigned and then a package is selected. I'm seeking a few Type A dry ice packages (1-2 cubic ft. in size) for someone. They must be certified "Type A" packages. Any help would be appreciated. I figured that this probably would be a shot in the dark on this board, but what the heck eh. :-/

Thanks for the definition...I'll add it to my ever growing knowledge of HP.
Pretty soon I think I'll be employable. ;)
