RDW 5.2 Page 2 3.2.2 The external radiation dose rate at any point on the externel surface of the package must not exceed 0.5 mrem / hour.
3.2.3 There must be no significant removable radioactive surface contamination on the exteriors of the package.

- The policy at PBNP is to reduce external contamination levels to <MDA.
Therefore, contamination levels in excess of 10% of those listed above require Health Physics Supervisor approval prior to release.
3.2.4 The outside of the inner container must bear the marking
/g-I~
" Radioactive".
4.0 The shipment
- of various radioactive devices may also be made under the
" limited quantity" designation. For information on this type of shipment refer to 49 CFR 173.391.
