Guam - Abnormal levels of radiation detected at Guahan Waste Control on Thursday never posed a threat to the public's safety. Guam Homeland Security Office of Civil Defense was activated after a dump truck entered the Harmon compound and set off radiation detectors.
Unitech conducted an assessment and isolated medical waste that caused the abnormal readings and disposed of it.
