				  radioactive material specified in the license, not exceeding quantities
				  specified in the license, for any authorized purpose, including, without
				  limitation, medical use of radioactive material. The quantities specified are
				  usually in the multicurie range.
2.

				  receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical
				  or physical form of radioactive material specified in NAC 459.266, for any
				  authorized purpose. The possession limit for a type B broad license, if only
				  one radionuclide is possessed under the license, is the quantity specified for
				  that radionuclide in Column I of NAC 459.266. If two or more radionuclides are
				  possessed, the possession limit for each is determined as follows: For each
				  radionuclide, determine the ratio of the quantity possessed to the applicable
				  quantity specified in Column I of NAC 459.266 for that radionuclide. The sum of
				  the ratios for all radionuclides possessed under the license must not exceed
				  unity.
3. A "type C specific
				  license of broad scope" is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition,
				  ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of
				  radioactive material specified in NAC 459.266 for any authorized purpose. The
				  possession limit for a type C broad license, if only one radionuclide is
				  possessed, is the quantity specified for that radionuclide in Column II of NAC
				  459.266. If two or more radionuclides are possessed, the possession limit is
				  determined for each as follows: For each radionuclide, determine the ratio of
				  the quantity possessed to the applicable quantity specified in Column II of NAC
				  459.266 for that radionuclide. The sum of the ratios for all radionuclides
				  possessed under the license must not exceed unity.
