RADIATION SAFETY RS-11 RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL

\\L4a n

)

.I.

SCOPE:

l n

This procedure applies to shipnents of, radioactive material sentL or received by the NRL. The scope of this procedure includes receipt of all radioactive materials, ahd the routine shipnent of type A and limited, quantity exclusive use pckages to be' transported in a closed transport vehicle.

t It does not include packages:

f 1 ~. Containing fissile material Go '

I 2.

with significant surface. contamination 3.

to be exported out of the United States, or l-

~

4.

to be transported by air," rail, vessel, or

-postal service.

,1, II. - DISCUSSICN:

s Present regulations.use A, values.as quantity limitations for i

radionuclides shipnent witfiin the scope of this procedure. The A2 value for a nuclide represents the maWnnnn activity of that

,. (

nuclide that may be L1.w irted in a type A pckage. Type A r

I containers are made and certified outside of the NRL. Presently,.

these containers are obtained fran the OSU Nuclear Pharmacy Department.

Limited quantity values are related to A values and represent activity' i

2 limitations for nuclides to be. shipped in.sub type A. standard

" strong, tight packages". There are no specific. test requirements

)

for strong tight packages. However, the shipper must ensure that I

there can be no release of radioactive material during transportation.

A.

Definitions 1.

A,., means the maximum activity of radioactive material, other than special form or low specific activity radioactive material, pemitted in 'a Type A package.

2.

Closed transport vehicle means a tim sport vehicle equipped with a securely attached exterior.

enclosure that during nomal transportation restricts the access of unauthorized persons to the cargo space containing the radioactive materials. The enclosure may be either temporary g

f or permanent, and in the case of packaged 3

materials may be of the "see-through" type, and must limit access frce top, sides, and ends.

Exclusive use (also referred to in othar regulations

[

as." sole use" or," full load")fmeans the sole use

(

of a conveyance by a single consignor and for which all initial,. intermediate, and final. Ioading 4

>Y and unloading.are carried out in accordance with

~

the direction of the consignor-or consignee.. 8 Specific instructions for maintenance of exclusive-use shipnent controls must be issued in-writing and' included with the shipping paper information.

provided to the carrier by the consignor.

4.. Fissi$e material.means any material consisting of or

'containing one or more fissile radionuclides.

Fissile radionuclides are plutonium-238, H

plutonium-239, plutonium-241, uranium-233,and',ium' uranium-235. Nei~ther natural ~nor depleted uran

. l are fissile material..

5 Limited quantity of radioactive material means a quantity of' radioactive material'not exceeding the materials' package limits specified'in 49CFR 173.423 and which confom with requirements specified in 49CFR 173.421.

6.

Tsw wpart index means the dimensionless number (rounded cup to the first decimal place) placed on the label of a package to designate the degree of control to be exercised by the carrier during

. transportation. The' W s:,w t index-is determined r

as follows:

a l

(1) The number expressing the maximum radiation level in millirem per hour at one meter (3.3 feet)

{

frca the external surface of the package, j

i 7.

Type A package means a Type A packaging together with-its limited radioactive contents. A Type A package does not require ccmpetent authority approval, since its contents are limited to A or 3

IV.' PRECAUTIONS:

A.

,Special attention should be given to ensure that the procedure is used within its scope.

1 B.

The shipper shall ensure that the carrier is aware of his responsibilities as carrier.

V.

PROCEDURE:

A. Shipment of radioactive materials.

1.' Attachment A contains step by step instructions for shipping most radioactive materials.

2. Attachment B contains a flowchart to be used for radioactive materials shipment-when Attachment A is inadequate.

(O B. Receipt of radioactive materials.

1. Upon receipt of all radioactive materials a " Procedures for the Safe Opening of Packages"' form (see Attachment C) should be filled out and sent to:

The Office of Radiation Safety B042 Graves Hall 333 W. 10th Avenue Columbus, OH 43210 VI. ATTACHMEVf_S:

a General radioactive materials shipping instructions 3,3 I

i bj 1.-Analyze the sample to determine the contents and amounts of

radioactive isotopes.present.
2. Refer to Table 1 to find the A v lue for each isotope present.

2 If the actual. activity of any of the isotopes present exceeds its respective A limit, the shipping instructions 2

outlined in Attachment B must be used.

t

3. Refer to Tab'.e 2 to determine the limited quantity activity limits for each isotope present. If the actual activity of any of the isotopes present exceeds its respective limited,

quantity activity limit, the shipping instructions outlined -

.in Attachment B must be used.

4. Shield the sample as best as possible using lead pigs, etc.,

and place in a strong tight package that will not leak any

.of the material.

(Note that liquids must be packed with closures upward.)'

5. Measure the radiation level at the surface on all sides of the' package.. If it exceeds.5 mren/hr at any point, increase I

the shielding until it doesn't. If this is not possible, the instructions in Attachment B must be used.

6. Seal the lead pig with tape and mark it as " Radioactive".

f

/

' '")

7. Canplete a shipping fonn (see Attachment D) and make two (2) copies of it. Place one copy inside the package. The second copy goes with the carrier. The original copy goes in.the NRL y

flie.

8. Seal the package.
9. Mark 2 sides of the package:

A. Radioactive Limited Quantity B. UN2910 C. If the weight of the package is greater than 110 lbs it must have its gress weight marked on the outside of the package.

D. If the material is in liquid fonn, the package must be marked with "This End Up".

10. Limited quantity packages are not required to have a " Radioactive" label on them.
11. Before releasing the carrier, verify that we have a current copy of the receiving party's license authorizing receipt of the type, form, and quantity of the material being sent.

If we do not, refer to Attachment B, Flowchart 15 for further instruction.

(]

( )

12. Give the carrier a copy of " Notes that the carrier should be aware

)

of" (See Attachment E).
