Dear Mr. Kinneman:

We are in receipt of your August i letter advising us that action is due on our application of March 3, 1989.

We are able at this time to supply the additional information requested by Mr. Jensen on May 2, 1989.

Enclosed please find the supplemental inform: tion requested:

1.

Samples (2) of the actual ECD tag-labels with revised information, including the leak test requirement and the model number.

This particular label is attached only to ECDs distributed to persons under general license.

Labels attached to ECDs distributed to persons under specific license do not bear the statement referring to a general license.

The source serial number is engraved directly into the ECD hardware and on the protective cover, along with the nuclide identity and activity (see p. S-154).

2.

The operations manual has been revised to include information on leak testing.

The frequency (36 months) is i

stated, which will now apply to both general and specific licensees.

Directions are given to the evner for the performance and documentation of the leak test himself, or for the purchase of a leak test kit from Chrompack.

Mr. John D. Xinneman, Chief August 10, 1989 3.

Documentation on Packard's leak test procedure is enclosed and is performed under Illinois license number 12-04 93.1-04 G.

Illinois does not have any provision for

" registering" a leak test procedure or kit in any way.

4.

A revised cover sheet for " Registry of Radioactive Sealed Sources and Devices" is submitted, showing t"e current manufacturer and distributer.
