Hazardous Materials: Notice of Suspension of Del-Med, Inc., 
Edison, NJ for DOT-SP 8308

AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), 
DOT.

ACTION: Notice of suspension.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This provides notice that transportation under the terms of 
DOT-SP 8308 has been suspended for Del-Med, Inc. formerly located in 
Edison, NJ.

DATES: The suspension discussed in this notice was effective October 
21, 2015.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Ryan Paquet, Director, Approvals 
and Permits Division, Office of Hazardous Materials Safety, (202) 366-
4535, PHMSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOT-SP 8308 authorizes the transportation in 
commerce of certain radioactive materials aboard highway vehicles when 
the combined transport index (TI) exceeds 50 or the separation criteria 
cannot be met. Paragraph 12.d. of DOT-SP 8308 requires quarterly 
reporting of: (i) The results of the radiation dosimetry program; (ii) 
a description of activities

[[Page 68899]]

conducted by the health physicist during the quarter; (iii) summaries 
of the results of the radiation level surveys and contamination 
surveys; (iv) any changes to the radiation safety program; (v) an 
estimate of the total TI transported during the quarter; and (vi) the 
total quarterly dose in person-rem for all monitored personnel.
    Del-Med, Inc. of Edison, NJ missed filing their reports. The fourth 
quarter report for 2014 was due within 90 days of January 15, 2015; the 
first quarter report for 2015 was due within 90 days of April 15, 2015; 
and the second quarter report for 2015 was due within 90 days of July 
15, 2015.
    Pursuant to 49 CFR 107.121, PHMSA's Associate Administrator may 
modify, suspend or terminate a special permit or grant of party status, 
as appropriate, on finding that the holder or party knowingly has 
violated the terms of the special permit or an applicable requirement 
of this chapter in a manner demonstrating the holder or party is not 
fit to conduct the activity authorized by the special permit. Del-Med 
Inc.'s failure to file the reports required by the terms of DOT-SP 8308 
constitutes a violation of the terms of the special permit. On 
September 11, 2015 PHMSA sent a letter proposing suspension of DOT-SP 
8308, and offering Del-Med, Inc. an opportunity to respond within 30 
days and show cause why the proposed action should not be taken. The US 
Postal Service was unable to deliver the letter. PHMSA's Office of 
Hazardous Materials Safety, Field Operations, attempted an inspection 
at the Edison, New Jersey facility and determined that Del-Med, Inc. is 
no longer active at that location. On October 21, 2015, PHMSA suspended 
Del-Med's status as a grantee to DOT-SP 8308 until such time that they 
can provide up-to-date quarterly reports and demonstrate that they are 
in compliance with the requirements of the special permit.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on November 2, 2015.

Associate Administrator for Hazardous Materials Safety, Pipeline and 
Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.
