White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Memo, Jan. 22, 2008
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) invoked this waiver Jan. 22, 2008, saying interdiction of any contaminated food, along with consideration of evacuation and sheltering, are more effective protective measures to use in the very unlikely event that people beyond the 10-mile emergency planning zone could be exposed to radioactive iodine.
