1 ANNEX A i

1 1.lCENSE CONDITION FOR LEAK TESTING SEALED SOURCES WHICH CONTAIN ALPHA AND/0R BETA-GAMA EMITTERS j

A.

1.

Each sealed source containing licensed material, other than Hydrogen-3, with a half-life greater than 30 days and in any form other than gas, shall be tested for leakage and/or contamination at intervals not to exceed 6 months.

In the absence of a certificate from a transferor indicating that a i

test has been made within 6 months prior to the transfer, a sealed source received from another person shall not be put into use until tested.

l 2.

Nothwithstanding the periodic leak test required by this condition, i

any licensed sealed source is exempt from such leak tests when the j

source contains 100 microcuries or less of beta and/or gamma emitting j

material or 10 microcuries or less of alpha emitting material.

4 i

3.

The periodic leak test required by this condition does not apply to i

sealed sources that are stored and not being used. The sources shall l

be tested for leakage prior to any use or transfer to another person unless they have been leak tested within 6 months prior to the date i

of use or transfer.

B.

The test shall be capable of detecting the presence of 0.005 micro-curie of radioactive material on the test sample. The test sample shall be taken from the sealed source or from appropriate accessible surfaces of the container, or device in which the sealed source is mounted 1

or stored on which one might expect contamination to accumulate. Records of leak test results shall be kept in units of microcuries and maintained for inspection by the Comission.

j C.

If the test reveals the presence of 0.005 microcurie or more of removable contamination, the licensee shall immediately withdraw i

i the sealed source from use and shall cause it to be decontaminated and repaired by a person appropriately licensed to make such repairs or to be disposed of in accordance with the Commission regulations.

j Within 5 days af ter determining that any source has leaked, the j

licensee shall file a report with the Division of Fuel Cycle and Material Safety, U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission, Washington, i

D.C.

20555, describing the source, the test results, the extent of j

contamination, the apparent or suspected cause of source failure, and the corrective action taken. A copy of the report shall be i

sent to the Administrator of the appropriate NRC Regional Office i

listed in Appendix 0 of Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 20.
