A.
(1) Each sealed source acquired from another person and containing 1
licensed material, other than hydrogen 3, with a half-life greater 5
than thirty days and in any form other than gas shall be tested for 5
contamination and/or leakage before use. In the absence of a certificate from a transferor indicating that a test has been made E
h within six months before the transfer, a sealed source received from
(
another person shall not be put into use until tested.
g d
lE:
5 (2) Notwithstanding the periodic leak test required by this condition, any E
l licensed sealed source is exempt from such' leak tests when the source if(
g contains 100 microcuries or less of beta and/or gamma emitting
(
materials or 10 microcuries or less of alpha emitting material, g:
(3) Except for alpha sources, the periodic leak test required by this p'
d condition does not apply to sealed sources that are stored and not lE 5
being used. The sources excepted from this test shall'be tested for iE flh leakage before any use or transfer to another person unless they have g

Each sealed source fabricated by the licencee shall be inspected and tested E
M for construction defects, ~1eakage, and contamination' prior to use or F
5 transfer as a sealed source.. If the inspection or test reveals any E:
f construction defects or 0.005 nicrocurie or greater of contamination, the fl g
source shall not be used or transferred as a sealed source until it has i
g 4
been repaired, decontaminated and retested.

d Commission. Records may be disposed of following Commission inspection.
