UNIMPAIRED PHYSICAL CONDITION.
The package is in
  unimpaired physical condition except for superficial defects such as marks or
  dents.
015.03

PACKAGE EXTERNAL SURFACE
  LEVELS OF REMOVABLE RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION.
The level of

  radioactive contamination may be determined by wiping an area of 300
  cm2 of the surface concerned with an absorbent
  material, using moderate pressure, and measuring the activity on the wiping
  material. Sufficient measurements must be taken in the most appropriate
  locations to yield a representative assessment of the removable contamination
  levels. Except as provided in 180 NAC 13-015.09(A), the amount of radioactivity
  measured on any single wiping material, when averaged over the surface wiped,
  must not exceed the limits given in TABLE 13-3 of 180 NAC 13-015 at any time
  during transport. Other methods of assessment of equal or greater efficiency
  may be used. When other methods are used, the detection efficiency of the
  method used must be taken into account and in no case may the removable
  contamination on the external surfaces of the package exceed 10 times the
  limits listed in TABLE 13-3.
(A) In the case
  of packages transported as exclusive use shipments by rail or highway only, the
  removable radioactive contamination at any time during transport must not
  exceed 10 times the levels prescribed in 180 NAC 13-015.09. The levels at the
  beginning of transport must not exceed the levels in 180 NAC
  13-015.09.

(D) If the environment, any equipment, or
  personnel are contaminated with radioactive material, they must be
  decontaminated before release from the site or release for unrestricted use;
  and
(E) If the sealed source is
  classified as irretrievable after reasonable efforts at recovery have been
  expended, the following requirements must be implemented within 30 days:
(i) Each irretrievable source must be
  immobilized and sealed in place with a cement plug;
(ii) A means to prevent inadvertent intrusion
  on the source, unless the source is not accessible to any subsequent drilling
  operations; and
(iii) A permanent
  identification plaque, constructed of long lasting material such as stainless
  steel, brass, bronze, or monel, must be mounted at the surface of the well,
  unless the mounting of the plaque is not practical. The size of the plaque must
  be at least 17 centimeters (7 inches) square and 3 millimeters (1/8 inch)
  thick. The plaque must contain:
(1) The word
  "Caution";

  additional calibrated and operable radiation survey instruments sensitive
  enough to detect low radiation and contamination levels that could be
  encountered if a sealed source ruptured. The licensee may own the instruments
  or may have a procedure to obtain them quickly from a second party;
(C) Ensure each radiation survey instrument
  required under 180 NAC 14-006. is calibrated:
(i) At intervals not to exceed six months and
  after instrument servicing;
(ii) At
  two points located approximately 1/3 and 2/3 of full scale on each scale for
  linear scale instruments; at midrange of each decade and at two points of at
  least one decade for logarithmic scale instruments; and at approximate points
  for digital instruments;
(iii) So
  an accuracy within plus or minus 20% of the calibration standard can be
  demonstrated on each scale; and
(iv) At energies and radiation levels
  appropriate for use; and

Current through June 17, 2024
Each licensee using sealed sources of radioactive material must have
	 the sources tested for leakage. Records of test results must be kept in units
	 of microcuries and maintained for inspection by the Department.
007.01
METHODS.
The
  wipe of a sealed source must be performed using a leak test kit or method
  approved by the Department, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), or
  another Agreement State. The wipe sample must be taken from the nearest
  accessible point to the sealed source where contamination might accumulate. The
  sample must be analyzed for radioactive contamination. The analysis must be
  capable of detecting the presence of 185 becquerel (Bq) (0.005 µCi) of
  radioactive material on the test sample and must be performed by a person
  approved by the Department, NRC, or another Agreement State to perform the
  analysis.
007.02
FREQUENCY.
Leak testing must be performed at the
  following intervals:
(A) Each sealed source
  except an ECS must be tested at intervals not to exceed six months. In the
  absence of a certificate from a transferor that a test has been made within the
  six months before the transfer, the sealed source may not be used until tested;
  and
(B) Each ECS not exempt from
  testing according to 180 NAC 14-007.04 must be tested at intervals not to
  exceed three years. In the absence of a certificate from a transferor that a
  test has been made within the three years before the transfer, the ECS may not
  be used until tested.
