Texas
Posse Hunting for Halliburton’s Missing Radioactive Device
Texas
may call out the National Guard in the hunt for a seven-inch radioactive rod
used in drilling natural-gas wells, lost this week by Halliburton Co. somewhere
in a 130-mile swath of the state’s western oil fields. The Texas Department of
State Health Services said yesterday it sought help from an Austin-based
National Guard unit that has equipment to locate the radioactive item, which can
pose a health risk if touched or held for several days.
