A method and system (12) for detecting and monitoring noncompliant interstate transportation of materials is disclosed. The method and system (12) include providing a detection and monitoring network (8) whereby multiple ports-of-entry (10) are each equipped with a detection system that is in communication with a central computer (22). The detection systems are then used to detect levels of a material in vehicles passing through the ports-of-entry. The method and system (12) further including associating the levels of material detected for each vehicle with the respective vehicle, and saving the vehicle material levels on a computer (16). The material levels detected at each port-of-entry are then uploaded to the central computer (22) for monitoring and review.
