Radioactive Materials
All radioactive materials orders require the prior approval of Environmental Health and Safety Radiation Protective Services (Ed O'Connnell (631) 632-9674). Radioactive orders received after 04:00PM will be processed the next business day.
When placing orders related to radioactive material, the following procedures are required:
- Requisition arrives in Procurement from GMO when it is Research, directly to Procurement when it is State. Each requisition must indicate the "inventory" – (on hand and waste) of the isotope being ordered.
- Procurement Buyer will e-mail Requisition (using scanner and attaching to e-mail) to both Edward John Oconnell, and Hannah Goodman, for RPS Approval. Janet Rienzo-Stack is to be copied on all e-mails when she is not the buyer.
- RPS Approval, indicating the requisition number approved, will be sent directly to the Buyer requesting the approval, via e-mail.
- Order will be placed by Buyer.
- All approvals will be filed in a "Radioactive Approval" Lotus Notes Folder maintained in Procurement.
- University personnel are not authorized to call a vendor directly to place or add to an order. If additional materials are needed a new requisition must be submitted and the above process followed.
