					 well. The procedure shall be approved by the Agency.
11.5.12
Energy Compensation
				  Source
A. A licensee may use an energy
				  compensation source (ECS) which is contained within a logging tool, or other
				  tool components, only if the ECS contains quantities of licensed material not
				  exceeding three and seven tenths (3.7) MBq (one hundred (100) microcuries).
1. For well logging applications with a
				  surface casing for protecting fresh water aquifers, use of the ECS is only
				  subject to the requirements of §§11.5.3, 11.5.4 and 11.5.5 of this
				  Part.
2. For well logging
				  applications without a surface casing for protecting fresh water aquifers, use
				  of the ECS is only subject to the requirements of §§11.5.1, 11.5.3, 11.5.4, 11.5.5, 11.5.11 and 11.7.4 of this Part.
