A. INTRODUCTION
sources (USASI N5.10. 1968).' To classify a sealed source under the system, a determination is made of its Section 32.51, "Certain Measuring, Gauging or ability to withstand the conditions of each Controlling Devices Gencrally Licensed Under §31.5 of environmental test prescribed in the standard.
this Chapter: Requirements for License to Distribute," Classification is determined by physically testing two of 10 CFR Part 32, "Specific Licenses to Manufacture, prototype sources for each test or by calculations based Distribute, or Import Exempted and Generally Licensed on previous tests which demonstrate that, if the source Items Containing Byproduct Material," requires, in part, were tested, it would pass. Maintenance of containment that each application for a specific license to distribute integrity after each test constitutes satisfactory devices containing byproduct material to persons performance of a source.
