Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) This chapter establishes requirements for
			 packaging, preparation for shipment, and transportation of radioactive
			 material.
(B) The packaging and
			 transport of radioactive material are also subject to other chapters of the
			 Administrative Code and to the regulations of other agencies (such as the DOT,
			 the United States postal service and the United States nuclear regulatory
			 commission) having jurisdiction over means of transport. The requirements of
			 this chapter are in addition to, and not in substitution for, other
			 requirements.
(C) This chapter
			 applies to any licensee authorized by specific or general license issued by the
			 director to receive, possess, use, or transfer licensed material, if the
			 licensee delivers that material to a carrier for transport, transports the
			 material outside the site of usage as specified in the Ohio license, or
			 transports that material on public highways. No provision of this chapter
			 authorizes possession of licensed material.
(D) Exemptions from the requirement for
			 license in rule
			 3701:1-50-04
			 of the Administrative Code are specified in rule
			 3701:1-50-06
			 of the Administrative Code. General licenses for which no package approval is
			 required are issued in rules
			 3701:1-50-10
			 to
			 3701:1-50-12
			 of the Administrative Code. The general license in rule
			 3701:1-50-07
			 of the Administrative Code requires that an United States nuclear regulatory
			 commission CoC or other package approval be issued for the package to be used
			 under the general license. The transport of licensed material or delivery of
			 licensed material to a carrier for transport is subject to the operating
			 controls and procedures requirements of rules
			 3701:1-50-15
			 to
			 3701:1-50-19
			 and rule
			 3701:1-50-23
			 of the Administrative Code, to the quality assurance requirements of rule
			 3701:1-50-24
			 of the Administrative Code or United States nuclear regulatory commission, and
			 to the general provisions of rules
			 3701:1-50-01 to
			 3701:1-50-05
			 of the Administrative Code, including DOT regulations referenced in rule
			 3701:1-50-05
			 of the Administrative Code.
(E)
			 These rules apply to any person required to obtain a CoC or an approved
			 compliance plan from the United States nuclear regulatory commission pursuant
			 to 10 C.F.R. 76 (as in effect on the
			 effective date of this rule) if the person delivers radioactive material
			 to a common or contract carrier for transport or transports the material
			 outside the confines of the person's plant or other authorized place of
			 use.
