A 2008 case involved a Chinese cheese grater with Cobalt-60, flagged by a recycler but not recalled due to fragmented authority among five agencies. Other incidents include 430,000 pounds of cobalt-60 laced steel from Brazil. Call for unified agency, radiation standards, scrapyard monitoring, safe disposal incentives, and penalties.
