Article Abstract:

In a bid to balance the need for security against radiological attack, and the importance of maintaining the flow of legitimate commerce, the US Coast Guard is buying radiation-detection devices and funding detection research. A $7 million contract has been awarded to Thermo Electron Corp. for handheld radiation pagers and isotope identifiers and the ideal scenario envisaged is of intervention overseas when a ship is set to leave a port and travel to the US.
