PAGE 2 OF 6 PAGES If the jurisdiction

status of a Federal facility within an Agreement

State is unknown, the licensee should contact the Federal agency controlling

the job site in question to determine

whether the proposed job site is an area of exclusive

Federal jurisdiction.

Authorization

for use of radioact i ve materials

at job sites in Agreement-states not'under exclusive

Federal jurisdiction

shall be obtained from the appropriate

state regulatory

agency. 11. Licensed material shall only be used by, or u ria er the supervision

of , individuals

who have received the training described

in the application

dated November 29, 2012, and have been designated

not to exce e d the intervals

specified

in the certificate

of registration

State. In the absence of a registration

certificate, sealed sources shall be tested for leakage and/or contamination

at intervals

not to exceed 6 months, or at such other intervals

as specified.

B. Notwithstanding

Paragraph

A of this Condition, sealed sour c es designed to prima rl ly emit alpha particles

shall be tested for leakage and/or contamination

at intervals

specified

in the certificate

of registration

or they contain only a radioactive

gas; or the half-life

of the isotope is 30 days or less; or they contain not more than 100 microcuries

of beta-and/or gamma-emitting material or not more than 10 microcuries

PAGE 3 OF 6 PAGES E. Sealed sources need not be tested if they are in storage and are not being used. However, when they are removed from storage for use or transferred

to another person, and have not been tested within the required l eak test interva l , they shall be tested before use or transfer.

No sealed source shall be stored for a period ofmore than 10 years without being tested for leakage and/or contamination.

F. The leak test shall be capable of detecting

the presence of 185 becquerels

(0.005 microcuries)

of radioactive

material on the test sample. If the test reveals the presence of 185 becquerels

(0.005 microcuries)

or mere of removable

contamination, a report shall be ,.. filed with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

in accordance

with 10 CFR 30.50 (c)(2), and the source shall be removed immediately

from service and decontaminated, repaired, or disposed of in accordance

with Commission

regulations.

G. Analysis of leak test samples and/or co ntamination

shall be-performed

by persons specifically

licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

or an Agreement

Stat eto perform such services.

The licensee is authorized

to collect leak test samples but not perform the analysis. H. Records of leak test results shall be kept in units of becquerels (microcuries)

and shall be maintained

for 3 years. 14. Sealed sources containing

licensed material shall not be opened or $ources removed fr o m source holders by the licensee, except as specifically

authorized. 15. The licensee shall conduct a physical inventory

every 6 months , or at other intervals

approved by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commiss i on, to account for all sealed sources and/or devices received and possessed

under the license. Records of inventories

shall be maintained

for 3 years from the date of each inventory, and shall include the radionuclides, quantities, manufacturer's

name and model numbers, and the date of the inventory.

16. A. Each gauge shall be tested for the proper operation

of the on-0ff mechanism (shutter)

and indicator, if any, at intervals

not to exceed 6 months or at such longer intervals

as specified

in the certificate

of registration

issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

PAGE 4 OF 6 PAGES B. Notwithstanding

the periodic on-off mechanism (shutter)

and indicator

test, the requirement

does not apply to gauges that are stored , not being used, and have the shutter lock mechanism

in a locked position.

The gauges exempted from this periodic test shall be tested before use. Records of test results shall be maintained

f 6r 3 ye a r s from , the date of each test. 17. The following

services shall not be performed

by the licensee:

installation, initial radialion

surveys , relocation, removal from service, dismantling, alignment , replacement, disposal of the sealed source, and non-routine

m aintenance

or repair of components

related to the radiological

safety of the gauge (i.e., the s ea led source, the source holder, source drive me chanism, on-off mechanism (shutter), shutter control, shielding).

These services shall be performed

only by persons specifically

licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

or an Agreement

State to perform such services. 18. The licensee may initially

mount a gauge, if permitted

by the certificate

of registration

issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

or an Agreement

State, and under the following

conditions:

A. The gauge must be mounted in accordance

with wr i tten instructions

provided by the manufacturer. B. The gauge must be mounted in a location compatible

with the Conditions

of Normal Use and Limitations

and/or Other Considerations

of ... Use in the certificate

of registration

issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

or an Agreement

State. -C. The on-off mechanism (shutter)

must be locked in the off position, if applic a ble, or the source must be otherwise

fully shielded.

D. The gauge must be received in good conditions (e.g., the package was not damaged). E. The gauge must not require any modification

to fit in the proposed location. Mounting does not include electrical

connection, activation, or operation

of the gauge. The source must remain fully shielded, and the gauge may not be used until it is installed

and made operational

PAGE 5 OF 6 PAGES 19. A. The licensee may maintain, repair, or replace device components

that are not related to the radiological

safety of the device containing

licensed material and that do not result in the potential

for any portion of the body to come into contact with the primary beam or result in increased

radiation

levels in accessible

areas. B. The licensee may not maintain, repair, or replace any of the following

device components:

the sealed source, the source holder, source drive mechanism, on-off mechanism (shutter), shutter control, shielding, or any other component

related to the radiological

safety of t he device, except as provided otherwise

by specific condition

of this license. 20. Prior to initial use and after insta llation, relocation, dismantling, alignment, or any other activity involving

the source or removal of the shielding, the licensee shall assure that a radiological

survey is performed

to determ in e radiation

levels in accessible

areas around, above, and below the gauge with the shutter open. Th is survey shall b e p e rformed only by persons author i zed to perform such services by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

or an Agreement

State. 21. The licensee shall operate each device containing

licensed material within the manufacturer's

specified

temperature

and environmental

limits such that the shielding

and shutter mechanism

of the source holder are not compromised.

22. The licensee shall assure that the shutter mechanism

of each device containing

li ce nsed material is locked in the closed position during periods when a portion of an individual's

body may be subject to the direct radiation

beam. The licensee shall review and modify, as appropriate, its "lock-out" procedures

whenever a new device is obtained to incorporate

the device manufacturer's

recommendations.

23. Except for maintaining

labeling as required by 10 CFR Part 20, or Part 71, the licensee shall obtain authorization

from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission

before making any changes in the sealed source, device, or source-device

combination

that would alter the description

or specificat

ions as indicat ed in the respective

certificate
