I know we have one here in Lima, Ohio as this is where all the mail sent to
the White House and Congress was irradiated when they had the anthrax
scare. They also process medical waste (sheets, gowns etc.) so that they
can be disposed of in normal waste facilities. Apparently it is cheaper
than treating it all as hazardous waste.
I do not know what they would charge though I have been meaning to find
out. One upside of irradiation is that you could cleanse combs without damage.
