SAFETY, WASTE DISPOSAL, AND RADIATION HAZARDS 75 ment and business. To illustrate this, there are three main stories in the film: The first traces the hunt for a radioactive source lost from a small industrial plant. The trail, via helicopter and police cars, takes the R-A-P team to a municipal dump. The second case is the problem of leaking radioactive vapor from a sealed system in a research labo- ratory. The third is the story of a fire in a uranium products plant that gives a R-A-P team the additional public information job of coping with a community which mistakenly assumes it is threatened with a disaster. Since, despite every safeguard, accidents do happen—detailed re- enactments in this film of the steps and measures taken to deal with these radiological emergencies show the operations of R-A-P teams as they put to work their specialized professional skills and equipment.
