The acting director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology called the June 9 plutonium spill at the Boulder campus unacceptable and said Friday that the agency is strengthening its safety program.
The statement by Dr. James Turner came hours after U.S. Rep. Mark Udall, D-Colo., called for a review of NIST safety practices, saying he is "seeking answers . . . as to how this situation could have been allowed to have occurred in the first place."
