QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM This QA program, although limited in scope, is conducted in accordance with the Company's normal QA policies. For this program, this requires that all procedures necessary for the safe use and control of shipping containers be written and defined by the Radiation Safety Manual and that only properly trained, competent personnel shall conduct the definea operations, inspections or tests. Also, the RSO shall assure that all shipping containers are designed and manufactured in accordance with 10CFR71 by certification from the manufacturer. 4. DOCUMENT CONTROL All documents pertaining to radiation safety program are controlled by the RSO and are included in our Radiation Safety Manual. This manual is distributed to all company employees involved in working with radioactive materials. Distribution of the manual and revisions are controlled in a positive manner by return of a transmittal form. i i G-78 (1-84)

l 5. HANDLING, STORAGE AND SHIPPING All operations involving the: handlica, storage and sh.ippios of.oackages for_certain special form radioactive material will be done in accordance with our Radiation Safety Manual. No shipments will be made unless all test, certifications, acceptance i and final inspections have been completed. I 6. INSPECTION, TEST AND OPERATING STATUS The RSO shall assure radiographic personnel conduct inspections and test as follows: i a. Receipt Inspection: The following inspections shall be conducted at receipt. 1. Survey 2. Visual inspection for correct marking and damage 3. Manufacturer's documentation The survey results will be recorded, b. In-process Inspection and Tests: The following inspections and tests shall be l conducted as required. ] 1. Leak tests 2. Visual inspection and survey when damage is suspected 3. Daily and monthly inspections and maintenance c. Final Inspection: The following inspections shall be conducted immediately prior to shipping equipment off site. 1. Survey 2. Proper labeling 3. Proper preparation for shipping (bolts, tightened, seals in place, source identification tag attached, etc.) 4. Shipping papers are complete and in order (shippers certificate, bill of lading,etc.) i 7. NONCONFORMANCES On discovery of a nonconformance the container will immediately be surveyed. If the radiation level exceeds 200 mr/hr at the surface or 10me/hr at 1 meter the restricted area shall be established and the RS0 notified. He shall direct resolution of the nonconformance. Surveillance of the restricted area shall be. maintained until the nonconformance 1: resolved. If the survey meets the above levels, the equipment shall be moved to a locked secure area. The RSO shall be notified of the nonconformance 4 and he shall provide resolution. 8. QUALITY ASSURANCE RECORDS All shipping container records will be maintained along with the other required radiation safety documents. All records are reviewed quarterly as part of the internal audit program. 4 ,___4 .y _w-n---. p 2

9. AUDITS Audit of this Quality Assurance program will be conducted on an annual schedule. Organizational Structure The program will be under the direct supervision of the Safety and Industrial Hygiene Manager and the Radiation Safety Officer (RS0).
