Inclosure 1 is Military Specification, MIL-R-24265 (SHIPS) used for the manu-facture of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set.

3.

The AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set contains two each sources gj9 ' Plutonium, Plutonium one source of 810 micrograms and one source of 8.1 miggggrams, as Chloride. A solution containing a known quantity of Plutonium Chloride is

~

carefully and thoroughly mixed with a polyvinyl-butyral resin and 99 percent ethyl alcohol mixture to assure a uniform dispersion of the radioactive material in the solution.

This solution is then poured onto a 12 inch diameter cast acrylic plastic disk and is allowed to dry under controlled conditions, i.e., 40 percent relative

]

humidity or less and a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit or less, resulting in a very thinly depositel layer of resin having a high degree of uniformity.

4.

One hundred percent of the radioactive source disks are tested for uniformity.

requirements prior to assembly into its shelf casing. One hundred percent of the sources are also tested for accuracy and leakage requirements in their completed configuration.

In-addition; a random sampling of ten percent of the completed l

AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Sets are tested for uniformity, accuracy, enclosure, shock and vibration, and leakage requirements and witnessed by a Government repre-sentative. The aforementioned testing requirements are stipulated in Inclosure 1.

- Inclosures 2, 3, 4 and 5 are the engineering drawings detailing the construction of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set.

5.

Quality audits by a qualified independent testing laboratory (Governmental or Industrial), i.e., the US Army Mobility Equipment Research and Development ~ Command or equivalent organization, will be conducted on a random sampling of ten percent of the completed AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Sets and tested in accordance with the 7

requirements of MIL-R-24265.

Sampling and testing will also conform to the require-ments of Military Standard 105, Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by l

SUPPLEMENT E 1.

Reference:

Paragraph 4 of letter / application.

2.

The Army program for control of radioactive items of supply is prescribed specifically in two regulations. AR 700-64, Radioactive Commodities in the D0D Supply Systems, is an_ interservice regulation which prescribes responsibilities for control of radioactive items and components which are introduced in the supply system. AR 385-11, Ionizing Radiation Protection, establishes requirements for obtaining NRC licenses for radioactive materials and authorizations to possess radioactive materiel not controlled by NRC, and requirements for individually controlled items of supply, the transportation of radioactive materials and the disposal of unwanted radioactive material. Major Army commands are implementing these Department of the Army (DA) regulations.

3.

The authority contained in NRC licenses and DA authorizations issued to CECOM per-mits D.0D installations and activities to acquire and use certain radioactive calibration and test items without obtaining their own license or authorization for these items (a DA authorization is required for radioactive material not controlled under an NRC specific license). This is based upon commitments made by CECOM that all Army elements will comply with conditions contained in those licenses and authorizations and with pertinent Federal, DOD and Army regulations. Both NRC and DA require control of all operations involving radioactive items to insure the safety of personnel and property. Army activities possessing licensed radioactive sources and the agencies con-trolling them are subject to inspection by the NRC in addition to inspection by Army elements.

4.

The mission of CECOM includes the management and pefformance of all material life cycle functions and services and acts as DA licensee for Army-wide distribution of these items. The following is a description of functions of the various CECOM elements providing a coordinated effort:

The functions for the manager of the NRC License /DA Authorization are assigned l

a.

l to the Chief, Safety Office of the Command Staff of this headquarters. The responsi-bilities of the manager are to:

(1) Coordinate, obtain, administer, review, amend and maintain necessary licenses / authorizations for radioactive connodities managed by this command.

(2) Provide information and guidance to all commanders, with respect to limitations, constraints, conditions or procedures which affect the responsibilities of those commanders for the radioactive commodity.

(3) Monitor the various elements of the life cycle program of the radioactive commodities to assure compliance with conditions of the applicable license /authoriza-tion.

(4) Assure that licensed / authorized material is not transferred to unauthorized persons or organizations.

I

[

b.

The health physicists serve as the CECOM staff contact for radiation control and license / authorization matters to the Army Materiel Development and Readiness Command,

other major commands and DA elements, other services and f ederal agencies; provide advice and assistance to other CECOM elements involved in the fielding of radioactive items, the National Inventory Control Point (NICP) (an element of CECOM), depots and other Army elements; prepare applications for NRC Licenses /DA Authorizations for Army-wide distri-bution of assigned items; prepare radiation safety instructions for incorporation in technical literature and other published guidance pertaining to the items; coordinate with the NICP to assure that requisitioning elements are authorized to and technically capable of receiving the item and the procurements do not exceed the quantity or use limitations imposed by the various licenses; perform pre-award and post award health physics surveys of contractors; provide health physics advice to be included in instruc-tions for disposal of radioactive waste, and serve as staff af ficers for notification, investigation, and preparation of reports required in the event of an accident or incident in which this command's radioactive items may be involved.

In addition to the above, the health physicists maintain a computerized.ata retrievel system that contains information such as the radioactive commodity type number, set serial number, location, responsible RPO, alternate RPO, where applicable, their qualifications, and all leak test results.

c.

The CECOM NICP located at Fort,Monmouth, New Jersey has adopted special pro-cedures for individually controlled radioactive items that are in addition to standard Army Supply practices used for all type classified items. The control point maintains records of procurements, receipts, storage locations, shipments, using locations, authorizes, issues, and assures adequate supply.

It reviews requisitions submitted and when approved, issues material release orders to the designated depot for shipment of the material to the requisitioner. Requisitions are submitted through various command control channels. The control point bases its approval on previously establish-ed authorization of the requisitioner to reqpive the item from the supply standpoint such as an approved Table of Allowances. Upon approval of the requisition, the control point issues a material release order to the depot storing the item. The depot ships the item directly to the requisitioner, notifies the control point and furnishes other shipping data which is forwarded also through supply property office channels.

d.

Reports of excess items are submitted through various command channels to the I

NICP for review for serviceability, turn-in or disposal as radioactive waste. Requests for disposition instructions of radioactive waste are submitted through radiation control /

protection command channels to the NICP.

The major Army commands have established regulatory requirements f or control e.

of the radioactive items.

Each major command has established at the headquarters level a radioactive material control point and appointed a command radiation control officer to administer control of radioactive items within the command. That officer reviews and concurs in the qualifications of local radiation protection officers within the command, maintains records of radioactive items by location and assures periodic inven-tory and leak tests by using activities, performs periodic inspections / audits of accountable installations / activities to assure that items are properly handled in accord-i ance with Army and NRC regulations, and to assure the submission of inventory and teak test reports and accident / incident reports to the appropriate commodity command as required by Army regulations. The local radiation protection officer is responsible for administering the local radiation protection program. Local programs provide for designated controlled areas, dosimetry, instrumentation, operating procedures to supplement published manuals for the items, receipts, transfers, storage and records.

2 l

[

-- ~

Requisitions originated by using elements are processed through the local radiation protection officer to the major command radiation control officer. The requisition is reviewed from the radiation protection standpoint and logistics authority for possession. If approved, the requisition is forwarded to the NICF. Upon receipt of notification from the NICP of the transaction the information is forwarded to the local radiation protection officer who assumes radiation protection responsibility for the item. Requests for transfers of items between installationshetivities are reviewed by the command radiation control officer and if approved reported to the NICP. Trans-fers outside the major commands are reviewed and approved by the NICP. Reports of excess items are submitted through radiation control channels for review for service-ability, turn-in or disposal as radioactive waste. Request for disposition instructions of radioactive waste are submitted through radiation control / protection command channels to Commander, USACECOM, ATTN:

DRSEL-SF-H, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey 07703.

f.

LBDA will provide bulk storage, maintenance, where required, leak test analyses, recalibration, quality surveillance and issue of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set

~

when approved by the NICP. No maintenance will be performed on the radioactive material /,

radiation source itself.

Cosmetic maintenance may be performed on the calibrator casing.

Where radioactive materials are involved, LBDA has established special warehousing facilities and handling procedures. The LBDA formal radiation protection program has been established and administered by a qualified physicist (RPO) from the US Army Ioniz-ing Radiation Dosimetry Center (AIRDC) of the US Army TMDE Support Group located at LBDA through a memorandum of understanding between the two organizations.

Mr. Joseph M. King, l

Chief, AIRDC has been designated to serve in this capacity. As with nonradioactive items, items are inspected when received, at intervals during storage and immediately before shipment. The inspections are conducted according to established surveillance procedures as determined by CECOM for each item. All AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Sets are tested for leakage of radioactive material prior to shipment to users. The quality surveillance program for the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set will be performed by either the LBDA-AIRDC RPO, his alternates or the CECOM Health Physichts and will involve the annual leak testing of a random sampling of at least one percent of depot assets and/or a minimum of five each of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator, whichever is greater. LBDA-l AIRDC will provide the results to Commander, USACECOM, ATTN: DRSEL-SF-H, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey 07703. Appropriate action will be taken if results indicate a trend toward leakage. LBDA will provide the NICP with notification of individually controlled item receipts, inspections and shipments. NRC licenses issued to LBDA-AIRDC describe the qualifications of the LBDA-AIRDC RPO, his alternates and the LBDA-AIRDC Radiation Protection Program.

g.

The program for control of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set, as with other radioactive items is, to the extent practical, the same logistics procedures applied to other Army supplies. Regulatory guidance has been established by DA and implemented by the various commands governing the management process, life-cycle management of material, logistics management and support, procurement, maintenance, storage, transpor-tation, including packaging and disposal. For radioactive items the procedures are augmented by specific regulatory controls pertaining to the possession and use of radio-active materials, control of personnel radiation exposure, safe storage, handling maintenance, transportation and disposal of the items. For the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibra-tor Set, more stringent controls have been established as distribution of these devices are limited to authorized calibration activities. These controls include identifying and insuring that the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set is coded in the Commodity Command Standard System Automated Data Processing Program as radioactive in accordance with Appendix A of AR 708-1, Cataloging and Supply Management Data. This calibrator set is coded with a Special Control Item Code of A meaning Regulated and containing a radio-active item. Requisitions are processed initially by computers and then are manually processed by the NICP item manager to verify that the requisitioners are authorized to 3

receive the calibrator set.

To insure that the above requirements are being implemented, the CECOM Health Physicists maintain close coordination with the item manager. Recali-bration and recertification of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set will be performed at LBDA, the US Army TMDE Support Activity Pacific (ATMDESAP), Camp Carroll, Korea, Nucleonics Branch, US Army Area IMDE Calibration and Repair Center - Pirmasens, Germany (ACRC-P), and the Nucleonics Laboratory Branch, US Army Calibration and Repair Center - Sacramento (ACRC-S), Sacramento Army Depot, Sacramento, California.

In addition to LBDA,. health physics laboratory counting equipment capable of measuring 0.001 microcuries are also available from ATMDESAP, ACRC-P and ACRC-S for evaluation of the three month leak test smears of the calibrator set.

leak test results are forwarded through Army channels to Commander, USACECOM, ATTN: DRSEL-3F-H, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey 07703.

h.

Users of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set are provided with specific instruc-tions on the operation, saf e handling, control and maintenance as described in Technical Manual 11-6665-247-10 (Inclosure 1). This informatico satisfies the radiation protection

Paragraph 4 of letter / application. 2. Facilities for use and storage of the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set will be designated radiation controlled areas for those purposes as approved by the local RPO. 3. Sets used by the mobile calibration teams RN/GSM-286/287 Calibration Set / Secondary Transfer Standards) will be used and stored in specially designed vans access to which is limited to team members. The sets will be stored in locked cabin-ts within the At other locations the sets will be used and stored in fire resistant build-vans. ings, in controlled areas and secured against unauthorized removal. Areas / buildings will be posted with Caution-Radioactive Materials signs. 4. LBDA-AIRDC Storage, maintenance and serviceability installation a. Construction: (1) The maintenance and serviceability installation is concrete block and steel with steel and concrete roof. The calibration and storage rooms are constructed of 36 inches of poured concrete with door containing k inch of lead shielding. (2) The storage installation (warehouse) is cinder block and brick con-struction with asphalt covered wooden roof. b. Fire Protection: The entire installation is protected by fire sprinkler system which is tied to LBDA's self supporting fire department. The fire depart-ment has a maximum response time of 2 to 3 minutes to its furthest building. c. Security: The security of the installation is such that all buildings are locked when not inhabited and the perimeters of LBDA are secured by chain-linked fence with roving patrols and sentries at the gate, d. Instrumentation: Adequate health physics instrumenta6.on is immediately available for operations involving ionizing radiation. 5. Calibration activities authorized to receive the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set are required to possess measuring / surveying instruments for which the calibra-tor is used. They are the AN/PDR-54, AN/PDR-56F and AN/PDR-60 standard Army alpha detection instruments (radiac sets) or commercial equivalent instrumentation such as the Eberline Instrument Corporation PAC series portable alpha survey instruments. In addition, these activities are authorized, as a minimum, the AN/PDR-27( ) standard Army beta-gamma detection instrument for beta-gamma radigtion detection. The sensi-tivity range of the AN/PDR-54 Radiac Set is zero to lx10 coungs per minute (cpm) in three decade scales, the AN/PDR-56F Radiac Set is zego to 1x10 cpm in four decade scales, and the AN/PDR-60 Radiac Set is zero to 2x10 cpm in four decade scales. The sensitivity range for the AN/PDR-27( ) Radiac Set is zero to 500mR/hr in four decade scales. l t

pe l 6. The AN/PDR-54, AN/PDR-56F and AN/PDR-60 standard Army alpha detection instru-ments and the AN/PDR-27( ) stat.dard Army beta-gamma detection instrument used for I health and saf ety purposes are calibrated in accordance with the frequency specified in Technical Bulletin 43-180, Calibration Requirements for the Maintenance of Army Materiel, and procedures prescribed in the technical manuals issued with the instru-ments. Presently, the calibration frequency specified is once every 90 d Calibra-tion standards used for the AN/PDR-54 and AN/PDR-60 are the AN/UDM-6( ) (g.Plutonium) and AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Sets. The calibration standard used for the AN/PDR-56F is the AN/UDM-7C Radiac Calibrator Set. Calibration standards used for the AN/ PDR-27( ) are the AN/UDM-1(60 Cobalt), AN/UDM-la (137 Cesium) or equivalent. All m.alibration standards are certified by, or traceable to, the National Bureau of Standards. 7. The radiation detection / measurement instrumentation, method of calibration, frequency and standards utilized by LBDA-AIRDC are contained in NRC Byproduct Material License 16-05033-01, NRC Source Material License SUB-417 and NRC Special Nuclear Material License SNM-623 issued to LBDA-AIRDC. 8. Bioassays available from the Surgeon General are pravided when needed. e 4 9 L-w-_-_-__ _-n-
