2.0 RESPONSIBILITIES l

2.1 It is the responsibility of the RSO (Radiation Safety Officer) at i

}

the Foster Wheeler temporary construction sites to assure that the j'

procedure detailed in this section are followed without deviation.

2.2 It is the responsibility of the Corporate RSO to establis'h prior-to transfer of radioactive materials to construction sites, that qualified. personnel are at the construction site and that the radioactive material ' licenses 'are current where the shipment is to be received.

2.3 Itris the responsibility of the supplier of by-product materials.

to ships radioisotopes to Foster Wheeler Constructors Incorporated construction. sites in approved containers and in accordance with all: applicable rules and regulations.

2.4 It :is the responsibility of common or contract carriers, including air carriers, 'tc_ assume' the _ responsibility-for adherence to l

Federal and-State rules and regulations governing the i

transpor.ation of radioactive materials whenever radioactive -

materiah a:'e in their possession under a shipping contract with the Foster Wheeler Constructors Incorporated.

l 2.5 It is the responsibility of the Foster Wheeler employee assigned-to transport radioactive materials in any vehicle under the o

control of the Foster Wheeler Constructors Inc. to comply with lt these procedures without deviation.

i L

3.0 LIMITATIONS

',j g,)

i This section covers the shipping and receiving of Iridium 192 sources up to fifty (50) curies, Ytteeium 169 sources, and empty Tech / Ops Models 650 and 660 source containers for domestic ground transportation only.

Cobalt 60 shipments will be made in accordance with specific instructions received from the Corporate R.S.O.

for each of these individual instances.

Ytterbium 169 sources will be shipped and received in accordance with the Iridium 192 Procedures of this Section, with any necessary changes incorporated.

Procedure will apply to any given shipment or receipt.

1 A0TE:

The transfer of any radioactive materials or radiographic p

exposure devices between construction sites is strictly I

prohibited without the express authorization of the Corporate L

Radiation Safety Officer.

CAUTION CAUTION Over-labeling source containers and/or transporting vehicles is considered as undesireable as under-labeling the same.
