concern for the integrity of the existing container an 85 gallon steel over pack drum was purchased from RAC Enterprises, LLC and delivered to Mr. Rhoe.

On August 13, 2014, Mr. Rhoe returned to the site with the results of the Radiation Safety Close Out Survey and the existing drum was placed in the over pack container and sealed for shipment using locked-in-place security closures and transported by Mr. Rhoe and Kelvin A.
