PART It

Nine packages with “radioactive yellow" labels are stowed in the
predesignatec areas A and B described above.

Area A

Package Height

Package {Inches} Transport Index
1 5 0.5
2 12 3.0
3 15 2.1
4 4 0.6
5 3 o.6
6.8

The maximum package height is 15 inches (package 3, tallest in the area)
and the sum of the transport indexes (0.5 + 3.0 + 2.1 + 0.6 + 0.6} equals
6.8. Chart 79(292 or more) shows that for a maximum package height of

15 inches the TI-limit is 9.0. The sum of the transport indexes (6.8)
does not exceed 9.0; therefore, the radioactive cargo in area A is stowed
in accordance with separation distances specifie2 in 49 CFR 175.701.

Area B

Package Height

Package (inches) Transport Index
6 3 2.4

8 i2 2.6
) 12 3.0
10.4

The heicht of the tallest package is 12 inches and the sum of the
transport indexes (2.4 + 3.0 + 2.0 + 3.0} equals 10.4. Chart 75
{276 ox more) shows that for a maximum package height of 12
the TI-limit is $9.0. The sum of the transport indexes in area B (10.4)
exceeds this limit. One of the packages S area must be removed.

= package 8 in area 3 is transferred to area A, the radioactive cargo
in both areas will be stowed in accoréance with separation distances
ed in 49 CFR 175.701.

Example 2.
Three packages with “radioactive yellow" lapels are stowed on the bare
compartment floor in the forward cargo compartment of a passenger-

carrying DC-8:

Package Height

Package (Inches) Transport Index
i 4 o.2
2 12 1.2
3 14 3.0
4.4

No other "radioactive yellow" label packages are aboard the aircraft.
The minimum distance between the cargo floor and the floor of the
overhead passenger cabin is 58 inches (52 Dius 6, cargo compartment
height plus ceiling thickness).

Is the separation distance between the radioactive cargo and the
passengers sufficient to satisfy Geral regulations? Chart 58
{Appendix A) shows that for a maximum package height of 14 inches
(package 3, tallest in the area), the TI-limit is 5.0; therefore,
the radioactive cargo is sufficiently separated from whe passengers
to satisfy the regulations.

Note: £ the same packages are stcwed on a 3-inch high pallet, the
separation distance between cargo floor and passerger floor would be
(58-3) 55 inches and chart 55 would be the appropriate Ti-limit chart.
In this circumstance, the TI-limit would still be 5 and the regulations
would be satisfied.

1. INTRODUCTION

Aircraft operators are required to exercise special controls over
packages* of radioactive material with a "radioactive yellow" label.
The yellow label indicates that either (a) the dose rate of radiation
emanating from the package is sufficiently high to warrant controls
limiting exposure of people, animals, and undeveloped film and/or

(b) the package contains fissile material in amounts requiring that
assembly of such packages in one location be limited for nuclear
criticality safety (to avoid a chain reaction). The controls to be
employed by the aircraft operator are based on the transport index
assigned by the shipper and shown on the "radioactive yellow" label.

2. TRANSPORT INDEX LIMITS FOR INDIVIDUAL PACKAGES AND MINIMUM PACKAGE SIZE

Radioactive material transported aboard passenger-carrying aircraft
must be packaged so that the dose rate does not exceed 200 millirem
per hour at any point on the external surface of the package and the
Transport Indext is not higher than 3.0 (49 CFR 173.393(i) and (q)).
These maximum values are permitted only for packages with “radioactive
yellow-III" labels+. For a package with a "radioactive yellow-II"
label, the limits are 50 millirem per hour at the package surface and
a transport index of 1.0 (49 CFR 172.403(c) (1)).

In addition, 4 inches is the smallest outside package dimension permitted
for any shipment of radioactive material (49 CFR 173.393(c)).

*Throughout this handbook, package refers to a "radioactive yellow"

label package or an overpack used to consolidate such packages
of radioactive material (49 CFR 172.403(c) and (d}, 173.393{r)).

tExcept for some shipments of fissile materials (49 CFR 173.389(a)(2)),
the transport index is the highest dose rate in millirem per hour at
3 feet from any external surface of the package (49 CFR 173.-39(i)(1)).

Por shipments aboard cargo-only aircraft, the transport index limit
is 10 for a package with a radioactive yellow-III label.

TRANSPORT INDEX LIMITS FOR PASSENGER-CARRYING AIRCRAFT WHERE AN
APPROVED SYSTEM OF PREDESIGNATED AREAS IS NOT IN USE

Federal regulations (49 CFR 175.701{a)} and {(b)) specify the minimum
separation distance between packages with "radicective yellow" labels
and areas occupied by people or animals. Where an overhead passenger
or crew compartment is the nearest such area, compliance with these
regulations can be ascertained as described below. For other arrange-
ments of passenger or crew compartments relative to radioactive cargo,
for animals transported in cargo compartments, or for packages marked
as containing undeveloped film, the charts are not applicable.

For each cargo area with one or more "radioactive yellow" labeled
packages, determine the maximum allowable sum of transport indexes
{TI-limit) by use of TI-limit charts in Appendix A. The smaliest
of the TI-limits, so determined, is the maximum allowable sum of
transport indexes of all packages in the entire aircraft. Under no
circumstances may the sum of transport indexes of all packages
aboard the aircraft exceed 50 in a passenger-carrying aircraft.

The appropriate TI-limit chart for an area is selected on the basis
of the minimum distance (inches) between the cargo floor* and the
passenger floor. This separation distance is the chart number.
From the information in Appendix B. separation distance between
bare cargo compartment floor and passenger floor can be calculated.
When “radioactive yellow" packages are on a raised cargo floor
(pallet or floor of freight container) the appropriate separation
dictance (and chart number) is the distance determined by use of
Appendix B minus the rise in the cargo floor. The TI-limit for the
area is then determined, based on the height of the tallest package
with a “radioactive yellow“ label in that area.

TRANSPORT INDEX LIMITS FOR PASSENGER-CARRYING AIRCRAFT WHERE AN APPROVED
SYSTEM OF PREDESIGNATED AREAS IS IN USE

Implisentation of an approved system of predesignated areas as provided
by 49 CFR 175.701 (c) usually increases the allowable lcad of radioactive
Material that may be transported in a passenger-carrying aircraft and
without the radiation levels in passenger and crew compartments exceeding
allowable limits. Details of the approval procedure are contained i
“The Department of Transportation Procedure for Approval of a System of
Predesignated Areas for Radioactive Material in Passenger-Carrying
Aircraft." This document may be obtained from:

Approvals Branch, DNT-232

-S. Department of Transocrtation
400 7th Street, S.W.

Washington, D.c. 20590

Compliance with the required minimum separation distances between
radioactive cargo and overhead passeng:r or crew compartments and the
proper spacing of radioactive cargo areas can he asc-rtained by use of
charts in Appendix C. For other arrangements cf vassenger or crew
compartments, for animals transported in cargo compartments, or for
packages marked as containing undev:loped film, the charts are not
applicable.

The maximum allowable sum of transport indexes (TI-limit) of e:l packages
in a predesignated area is determined by use of the approvriate chart for
that area. Under no circumstances may the sum of transport indexes of ail
packages aboard the aircraft exceed 50 in passenger-carrying reraft.
The chart is selected on the basis of information encoded in the chart
number:

a. The first two digits in the chart number are the mininum distance
(inches*) between the cargo floor and the passenger floor Cargo
floor means that surface on which the "radioactive yellow" packages
rest (bare compaitiaent floor, pallet, or floor of freight container).

b. In parentheses, in the chart number, is the mi um laterai distance
(inches*) to the nearest other predesignated area. Lateral distance
is measured between the boundaries of predesignated areas.

*When considering distance between cargo floor ané passenger floor
or lateral distance to nearest other predesignated area. Grop any
fraction of an inch: for example, 54.5 becomes 54.

Example 3.

In a passenger-car: § B-727, three packages with "radioactive yellow”
iabels are stowed in the forward cargo compartment end four such packages
are stowed in the constant part of the aft cargo compartment.

Package Heicht
Package (inches) Transport Index

3.2

Constant part of aft cargo compariment

4 4 0.6
5 12 2.2
6 12 1.9
7 i2 1.4
5.2

No other “radioactive veliow" packages are aboard the aircraft. The
minimum distance between the floor of the forward carge compartment
and the floor cf the overhead passenger cabin is 51 inches; the minimum
distance betwees the cargo fioor in the constant part of the aft cargo
compartment and the floor of the overhead passenger cabin is 61 inches.
Is the separation distance between the radioactive cargo and the
passengers sufficient to satisfy Federal regulations?

For the forward cargo compartment use chart 51 (Appendix A) since the
distance between the cargo flocr and passenger floor is 51 inches.
Chart 51 shows that for a maximm package height of 14 inches (package
3, tallest in area), the TI-limit is 4.0.

For the constant part of the eft cargo compartment, where the tallest
package is 12 inches, chart 61 indicates a TI-limit of 6.0.

The smaller of the two Ti-limits is 4.0, which is, therefore, the
maximum allowable sum of transport indexes of all packages and overpacks
in the entire aircraft. in this example the radioactive cargo actually
aboard the aircraft has a total transport index (3.2 + 5.2 =) 8.4.

This value exceeds the allowable limit of 4.0 determined above; hence,
the separation of radioactive cargo and areas occupied by people is not
sufficient to meet Federal regulations.

Example 1.

Four packages with "radioactive yellow" labels are described below.
Based on the limits specified in section 2 above, are they acceptable
for transportation aboard passenger-carrying aircraft?

Transport Dimensions
Package Index (inches)
1. radioactive yellow-II 1.1 40 + 40 x 40
2. " o.1 326x686
3. " al 0.4 16x 16x17
A. * yellow-Iil 3.1 40 x 35 x 25

Package 1 is unacceptable because the transport index (1.1) exceeds the
maximum transport index (1.0) permitted for a package with a radioactive
yellow-II label.

Package 2 is unacceptable because the minimum dimension is only 3 inches,
whereas the smallest dimersion allowed is 4 inches.

Package 3 is acceptable.
Package 4 is unacceptable because the transport index (3.1) exceeds the

maximum transport index (3.0) permitted for a package transported on a
passenger-carrying aircraft.

16. Abstract
To limit radiation exposure in passenger-carrying aircraft the Department of Trans-
portation requires operators of such aircraft to exercise special control over
packages of radioactive material bearing a “radioactive yellow" label. The degree
of control is based cn a number called the transport index that is assigned by the
shipper and shown on the label. The regulations prescribe minimum separation
distances between radioactive carge and spaces occupied by people or animals. These
distances are a function of the sum of the transport indexes of the radioactive
cargo. Where an approved system of predesignated areas is in use, the minii dis-
_ -+~tance between areas where radioactive cargo may be stowed is also prescriber This
handbook contains figures that show, for most types of air carrier aircraft, the
cargo compartment dimensions, distances between cargo compartments, and distartes
between cargo compartmerits and overhead passenger compartments. It contains charts
that show the maximum allowable sum of transport Andexes for a cargo area a.» related
to (i) the height of the tallest package with a “radioactive yellow" label in the
area, and (ii) the distance between the cargo floor and the passenger floor. It
also contains charts for use with a system of predesignated areas that include the
distance between predesignated areas as well as items (i) and (ii) above. Solved
problems are provided as a teaching aid to facilitate use of the figures and charts
in determining the transport index limit for individual cargo areas and for an
entire aircraft. The material in this handbook will be useful to FAA inspectors

in training and in the field and to airline personnel. <—~

Exampie 5. (Simplified loading proc2dure)

“Radioactive yellow” label packages transported by Flyfast Airlines
are 18 inches or less in height. To simplify the loading of such
shipments, the airline uses the TI-limit speciiied for a maximum
package height of 18 inches, even though the maximum package height
on some flights is less than 18 inches. According to this procedure,
what is the TI-limit for a predesignated area where the minimm
distance between the cargo floor and the passenger floor is 71 inches
and the minimm lateral distance to the nearest other predesignated
area is 230 inches?

Chart 71(228 to 243) shows that for a maximum package Teight of 18 inches
the TI-limit is 7.0. (Note: The TI-limit would be less than 7.0, if
any "radioactive yellow" package in the area was more than 19 inches
high.)
