One of the bee clubs in the New England states used to have a program for
radiation of equipment to sterilize any potential American Foul Brood (AFB)
infection.  This may have been known infestations or prophylactic
treatments.  I don't know what club that was.  I am interested in two areas
of information:

1) Sources of information on the radiation requirements for sterilization
against AFB.

2) Cooperative programs run for the sterilization of bee equipment against
AFB.
