D AT E 6/1/78 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM RADIOACTIVE TITLE MATERIAL SHIPPING PACKAGES 1.

SCOPE 1.1 The Quality Assurance Program described herein applies to the use, maintenance, and repair of shipping packages for special form radioactive material.

The program supplements the ITT Grinnell Radiation Safety Manual submitted in accordance with 10CFR30 and on file with the Division of Materials Licensing.

It describes the procedures, safety precautions and radiation surveys taken during handling, storage, and shipping operations for shipping packages for special form radioactive material.

The program identifies the Quality Assurance Organization, methods and techniques for the ef fective control and assurance of radiological safety and' package performance, and to ensure that all necessary radiation surveys, quarterly maintenance, leak tests and equipment inspections are performed.

This program is in accordance with the require-ments of Appendix E 10CFR Part 71.

1.2 ITT Grinnell Corporation is a license-user and does not perform any of the following functions that apply to shipping packages :

Des ign, Fab-rication, Assembly and Testing.

Therefore, these items are not addressed.

To assure that all radioactive material shipping packages are designed, manufactured, assembled and tested in accordance with a Quality Assurance Program in accordance with 10CFR Part 71 Appendix E and approved by the NRC, ITT Grinnell Corporation shall obtain a certification from the supplier to this ef fect.

Each instrument shall be calibrated at intervals not to exceed three months, the survey instru-ment shall bear the date of calibration and date due for recalibration.

Radiography may not be performed unless a radiation detection instru-ment within calibration is available for use.

If the instrument is past due, radiography shall

not be performed using this meter, and the meter should be returned to the Research, Development and Engineer ~ing Division in providence, Rhode Is-land for calibration.

(b)

To confirm the survey instrument is operating, it should be placed one foot from the front of the projector and the measurement compared to the previous one recorded on either the dosi-meter sheet or utilination log.

If this reading is not in agreeuent with previous readings, the instrument should not be used, but returned to the Research, Developaent k Engineering Division in Providence, Rhode Island.

Securing of Sources The source shall be placed in the rear of the vehicle as far away from any individuals in the car as possible.

The source or sources shall be secured so as to prevent shif ting or movement causing damage to the car or storage container.

This shall be achieved by tying and blocking the container to the vehicle.

c.

Radiation Levels 1.

The vehicle shall be surveyed to insure that no unauthorized person could receive an ex-cess of 2 Mr in any one hour or in excess of 100 mr/hr if continuously present for 7 con-secutive days.

If the resulting survey indi-cates radiation levels in excess of that

(,

above stated, additional shielding must be added.

The results of the survey must be re-corded on Form RDI-12(E) Daily Utilization Log (Fig. 6).

2.

Radiation levels from all surveys of shipping containers shall not be in excess of these acceptable radiation limits:

a.

200 ar/hr at the external surface b.

10 =r/hr at 3 feet from the external surface.

4 3.

The radiation level for survey of the vehicle at the outside surface shall not exceed a transport index of 10.

4.

The radiation level for the survey of the driver's position shall not exceed 2 mr/hr.

MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE RADIATION EXPOSURE:

26.

The maxi =um permissible weekly. radiation dose for whole body exposure shall not exceed 100 millirets.

If the weekly dosimeter report exceeds this amount, explanation shall be furnished at the bottom of Form 162A-RI (Fig. 7).
