Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 333 - OREGON HEALTH AUTHORITY, PUBLIC HEALTH DIVISION › Division 113 - RADIATION SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR WIRELINE SERVICE OPERATIONS AND SUB-SURFACE TRACER STUDIES › Section 333-113-0120 - Leak Testing of Sealed Sources

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Testing and Record Keeping Requirements.
			 Each licensee using sealed sources of radioactive material must have the
			 sources tested for leakage at intervals not to exceed six months. Records of
			 leak test results must be kept in units of microcuries (Bq) and maintained in
			 accordance with
			 333-100-0057.
(2) Method of Testing. Tests for leakage must
			 be performed only by persons specifically authorized to perform such tests by
			 the Authority, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Agency, an Agreement State or a
			 Licensing State. The test sample must be taken from the surface of the source,
			 source holder or from the surface of the device in which the source is stored
			 or mounted and on which one might expect contamination to accumulate. The test
			 sample must be analyzed for radioactive contamination and the analysis must be
			 capable of detecting the presence of 0.005 microcurie (185 Bq) of radioactive
			 material on the test sample.
(3)
			 Interval of Testing. Each sealed source of radioactive material must be tested
			 at intervals not to exceed six months. In the absence of a certificate from a
			 transferor indicating that a test has been made prior to the transfer, the
			 sealed source must not be put into use until tested. If, for any reason, it is
			 suspected that a sealed source may be leaking, it must be removed from service
			 immediately and tested for leakage as soon as practical.
(4) Leaking or Contaminated Sources.
(a) If the test reveals the presence of 0.005
			 microcurie (185 Bq) or more of leakage or contamination, the licensee must
			 immediately withdraw the source from use and have it decontaminated, repaired
			 or disposed of in accordance with these rules.
(b) The licensee must check the equipment
			 associated with the leaking source for radioactive contamination and, if
			 contaminated, have it decontaminated or disposed of in accordance with these
			 rules.
(c) A report describing the
			 leaking source and equipment involved, the test results and the corrective
			 action taken must be filed with the Authority within 30 days of
			 discovery.
