§ 20,4 Units of radiation dose.(a) "Dose," as used in this part, is the

quantity of radiation absorbed, per unitamass, by the body or by Any portion of..the body. When the regMations in thispart specify a dose during a period oftime, the dose means tba total quantityof radiation absorbed, per unit of mass,by the body or by any portion of thebody during such peridd of time. Severaldifferent units of dose are in current use.Definitions of units as used in this partare set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c)of this section.

(b) The rad, as used in this part, is ameasure of the dose of any ionizing radi-ation to body tissues in terms of theenergy absorbed per unit mass of the

7-' tissue. One rad is the dose correspond-: ing to the absorption of 100 ergs per gram

of tissue. (One mlllirad (mrad) =0.001u- rad.)

(c) The rem, as used in this part, isa measure of the dose of any ionizingradiation to body tissue in terms of itsestimated biological effect relative to adose of one roentgen (r) of X-rays. (Onomillirem (mrem) =0.001 rem.) The rela-tion of the rem to other dose units de-pends upon the biological effect underconsideration and upon the conditions ofirradiation. Per the purpose of the reg-ulations in this part, any of the follow-ing is considered to be equivalent to adose of one rem:

(1) II dose of 1 r due to X- or gammaradiation;

(2) A dose of 1 rad due to X-, gamma,or beta radiation;

(3) A dose of 0.1 rad duo to neutronsor hip% energy protons;

(4) A dose of 0.05 rad due to particlesheavier than protons and wi,h sufficientenergy to reach the lens of the eye;If it is more convenient to ,,./l,Asute theneutron flux, or equivalent, 0A-q to de-terinine the neutron dose .41 roads, uProvided in subparagraph C.:, of thisparagraph, one rem of neutrere:txdiationmay, for purposes of the retv.ilArriona inthis part, be assumed to be elV.11valentto 14 million neutrons per square cents-

A.3 This Training Source Set has been de-signed specifically for use in training exercisesand is not intended as an accurate calibrationsource. You will note that two different train-ing source sets have been procured by OCDwhich differ only in the number and activityof the individual sealed sources. In this publi-cation, reference will be made to the CD V-784and CD V-786 to, distinguish between the twosets. ISSUANCE OF A PARTICULAR SETWILL BE AT THE DISCRETION OF OCD.

Available separately as TM-67-1.

PREPARATION OF THE SEALED SOURCES

A.4 Any radioactive material that is en-cased in, and is to be used in, a container in amanner intended to prevent leakage of theradioactive material, or any of its daughterproducts, is referred to as a sealed source. Thesources in the OCD Training Source Set are ofsuch a nature. The radioactive material isCobalt 60, which was prepared by the neutronirradiation of Cobalt 59 in a nuclear reactor.

A.9 The individual sources in the CDV-786 Sets are not calibrated. However, theycan be calibrated using the CD V-138, 0-200m dosimeters. For the calibration range,select a point and lay out a circle with a radiusof 1 to 2 feet. This point should be in a largeopen area to minimize the contribution from

scattered radiation. Zero the two CD V-138dosimeters which are component parts of theSet, and several additional CD V -13S's if theyare available. Check all dosimeters for leakage.Locate the lead container with the sources atsuch a distance fromthe- calibration rangethat they will not affect the dosimeter readings.Place the dosimeters'in an upright position onthe .circle. Make certain the t nothing shieldsthe dosimeters from the source. Place onesource in position and expose the dosimetersfor as long as necessary to obtain at least a.50 mr exposure. The time will vary dependingon the size of the source. Compute the activityof the source as indicated in the followingexample. Remember to keep radiation ex-

posures of individuals to a minimum. All

calculations sliOuld be done before the sourcesare used in training, or after they have beenreturned to the storage area.

PROCEDURES FOR INITIAL CHECK ONRECEIPT OF AN OCD TRAINING SOURCESET

A.11 The transportation of radioactive ma-terials moving in interstate commerce by rail,water, or by public. highway (except in U.S.mail), is regulated by the Interstate CommerceCommission, and some States extend the ICQregulations to intrastate transportation. Inaddition, local authorities may impose addi-tional limitations on the transportation ofradioactive materials, as in the case of theirmovement through tunnels or within portareas.. (See par. A.49 and A.50.)

A.12 The OCD Training Source Sets arenormally shipped to the licensed custodian bymotor freight or railway express, with theauxiliary equipment being packed separately'from the lead containers. The keys to theSets are sent to the licensee by registeredmail, return receipt requested. The step -by.:-step procedure listed below should be followedwhen a Training Source Set is received by alicensee from OCD or on permanent transferfrom another licensee. The licensee must weara CD V-138 dosimeter at all times when theTraining Source Set is being used, checked, orrepaired. Remember to keep radiation exposuresto a minimum.

a. Check to see that each of the lead con-tainers, CD V-791 and CD V-792, bears alabel including the following information:radioisotope, number of sealed sources, totalactivity of the sources, and the date ofencapsulation, or date of last calibration.

b. Count the number of sealed sources,and place them on disposable paper. TheCD V--784 Set should contain six sources.The CD V-786 Set should contain 12 sources.If the Set is issued directly from OCD, anydiscrepancy should be noted on Form DD1149-2, Requisition and Invoice/ShippingDocument (EAM). If the Set is perma-nently transferred from another licensee, thenew custodian should note any discrepancieson the letter of receipt furnished OCD.(See par. A.45.) In both cases, the custodianshould also advise the State of anydiscrepancy.

c. Leak test each sealed source in accord-ance with the instructions, beginning with

paragraph A.13. Record the results of theinitial leak test and keep them on file. Eachsealed source must be leak tested every 6months from the date of the initial test.

d. Replace rings or tags on any sealedsource which is not properly ringed ortagged, Replace rings and/or tags in accord-ance with the instructions beginning withparagraph A.21.

e. Return the sources to the lead con-tainers, and place the OCD Training SourceSet in the authorized storage area.

LEAK TESTING PROCEDURES FOR OCDTRAINING SOURCE SETS

A.13 Immediately upon receipt and there-after at intervals not to exceed every 6 months,each recipient of an OCD Training Source Set,in accordance with a condition on his byproductmaterial license, is responsible for performingthe following test for external leakage, and/orcontamination of individual sources. Recordsof leak tests must be maintained by thelicensee.

A.14 Remove the CD V-791 lead containerfrom the CD V;792 lead container. Moistena piece of paper which has a high wet strength,such as filter paper or a paper towel, and wipethe inside of the CD V-792 lead container.

A.15 Using a CD V-700 Geiger counter,with the shield open, the earphones attached,the range set to the most sensitive scale (X1),and the window as close as possible to, butnot in contact with, the filter paper or papertowel, thoroughly monitor the paper. Sincegamma radiation is of primary interest, thefilter paper can be measured while wet. Acareful check of the background radiationshould be made prior to monitoring the paper.Care should be taken that the monitoring isperformed at a-distance from the sealed sourceswhere they do not affect the CD V-700 naturalbackground readings during the monitoringoperation.

A.16 Any average reading of the CD V-700above normal background must be attributedto contamination. Do not be concerned withan apparent momentary slight increase in thecounting rate of the paper as the variation innormal background and meter deflections maycause this.

54

A.17 If the test reveals any removableradioactive material, the licensee must takeimmediate action to prevent the spread of con-tamination. The sources and the contaminatedfilter paper must be placed in the lead container,and the licensee must immediately notify theRadef officer in his OCD region. The entireSet must be kept secure and locked pendingdisposition instructions. In accordance withthe leak test condition on his license, thelicensee must also notify the AEC of the leakingcapsules within 30 days after the completionof the test.

A.18 If the CD V-792 shows no evidence ofradioactive contamination, remove one of thesealed sources from the CD V-791 container,using the 18-inch handling tongs (CD V-788).Using the tongs and/or pliers, so the licensee's

hands will not come close to or In. contact withthe source, wrap and wipe each hidividualsource on a piece of -the high wet strengthpaper which has been moistened with water.Sufficient pressure to effect a thorough removalof any contamination should be applied. Aseparate paper should be used for each source.

A.19 Remove the sealed source from thepaper, and place it on disposable paper. Usingthe CD V-700, thoroughly monitor the paperto determine if the source is leaking or contam-inated. Any average reading of the CD V-700above normal background must be attributed toleakage and/or contamination. As the test foreach capsule is completed, place the capsule inthe CD V-792 lead container until all capsuleshave been tested. This will further reduceexposure doses.

A.20 Leak test each source and wipe testthe CD V-791 small lead container in the samemanner as the CD V-792. If the leak testresults are negative, return the sources to theCD V-791 small lead container, and place theSet in its normal storage location.

REPLACEMENT OF RINGS AND TAGS ONSEALED SOURCES

A.21 A second condition on byproductmaterial licenses issued to civil defense organiza-tions or personnel requires. the replacement ofthe one inch yellow warning tag and/or ringattached to each source, should they becomedetached through usage or accident. It is theresponsibility of the licensed custodian of theTraining Source Set to replace the rings andtags in accordance with the following instruc-tions. New tags and rings and new radiationarea signs may be obtained from

With a screw-driver, make a small slot on each side of the holeto accommodate the metal ring on the source.This hole is for the replacement of tags and willallow you to work on the ring in an uprightposition. (NoTE.-The slot should not be sodeep that it hinders the separation of the ringin replacing the tag.)

A.24 A second hole %-inch deep and 9i-inchin diameter should be drilled adjacent to the tagreplacement hole. This second hole will holdthe source in an upright position, yet willexpose the hole in the source which accom-modates the ring. The slots on the tag replace-ment hole will distinguish it from the ringreplacement hole.

A.25 Tags should be replaced in accordancewith the following step-by-step procedure:

a. Place the CD V-792 on a table strongenough to support it. In this position you-will be able to work on the sealed source andkeep your radiation exposure to a minimum:

b. Place the screwdriver, long-nosed pliers,and new tag on the table where they can beeasily and quickly reached when needed.

c. Place the untagged source in the properhole with the aid of the 18-inch handlingtongs. Make certain that the separationportion of the ring is at the top. Make noattempt to remove any portion of the old tagfrom the sealed source.

REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE USE ANDSTORAGE OF OCD TRAINING SOURCESETS

A.28 An Atomic Energy Commission By-product Material License requires the licenseeto be responsible to the AEC for the propercare, handling, and storage, of the OCD Train-ing Source Set in his custody as well as reportingto the AEC any loss, damage, or accidentresulting from violations of AEC standards.The acceptance of the license binds the licensee(not OCD) to the conditions set by the AECunder which. the Training Source Set is placedin his jurisdiction. These regulations areclearly outlined in Title 10, Chapter 1, Part 20,of the Code of Federal Regulations entitled,"Standards for Protection Against Radiation."

53

A copy of these regulations (10CFR-20) isissued to each licensee with his byproductmaterial license.

A.29 In addition to the AEC requirements,OCD requires each licensee possessing an OCDTraining Source Set loaned to him through theState civil defense office to comply with addi-tional regulations. This means the licensee isresponsible to the AEC for the proper care,use, and storage of the Training Source Set butis responsible to the State which, in turn, isresponsible to OCD for the property account-ability of the Set. Important'AEC regulationsand all OCD regulations are contained in theremaining paragraphs of this section. Thelicensee is referred to 10CFR-20 for theadditional AEC regulations.

A.30 StorageThe preferred location forthe storage of the Training Source Set is in alocked, unoccupied, and isolated area. Onlywork necessary to normal storage operationsshall be performed in the storage area. Onlyauthorized personnel shall be allowed to enterthestorage area and their duration of occupadcyshall be kept to a minimum. Determinationof the radiation levels in the immediate storagearea shall be made with a CD V-700 and thereadings recorded, dated, and filed. Normally,the Set shall be stored only at those locationsspecifically authorized on the license. Tem-porary storage is permitted at other locationswhen training activities make it impractical toreturn the Set to its normal storage site aftereach use.

A.31 Posting--Each area or room in whichan OCD Training Source Set is used or stored,regardless of whether it is the normal or atemporary storage area, will be considered arestricted area and shall be conspicuouslyposted with the radiation area signs issuedwith the Training Source Set. Restrictedarea means any area to which access is con-trolled by the licensee for purposes of protec-tion of individuals from exposure to radiationand radioactive materials. Restricted areashall not include any area used as residentialheadquarters, although a separate room orrooms in a residential building may be set apartas a restricted area.

The following information must be posted onall entrances to the storage area: (1) radio-isotopes stored, (2) number of Sets and numberof sources per Set, (3), total activity and date ofcalibration, and (4) whom to call in case of anemergency. In addition, the standard radia-tion area signs which are included with theOCD Training Source Set will be posted in con-spicuous places in areas where the Source Setis used or stored. Signs will be sufficient innumber and placed so as to be clearly visiblefrom any approach to the area.

A.32 Caution SignsStandard radiationarea signs shall include the conventional three-bladed symbol and the words, 'Caution (orDanger) Radiation Area," printed in magentaor La yellow-background. The signs included

58

with the Training Source Sets meet theserequirements.

A.33 Uses-7-The licensee shall use the Traid-ing Source Set for only those activities specifi-cally authorized under item 9 of his byproductmaterial license. An authorized use whichreads: "To be used in training of instrumentoperators, and for instrument calibration pur-poses" does NOT sllow the licensee to use theTraining Source Set for the training of radio-logical defense instructors.

A.34 SupervisioniThe OCD Cobalt 60Sealed Source Set may only be used for the pur-poses stated in the AEC Byproduct MaterialLicense. It must be used by, or under thesupervision and in the physical presence of, oneof the individual users designated in the license.

A.35 Instruction of PersonnelBefore enter-ing a restricted area, all individuals shall beinformed of the presence of radioactive ma-terials and shall be instructed in the hazards ofexcessive exposure to such materials and inprecautions or procedures to minimize exposure.

A.36 Exposure of IndividualsUnder no cir-cumstances shall the licensee use the TrainingSource Set in such a manner as to cause anyindividual in a restricted area to receive in anyperiod of 7 consecutive days from radioactivematerial and other sources of radiation in thelicensee's possession, a whole body gamma dosein excess of 100 mr, or a whole body gamma dosein excess of 5 r in any one year. No licenseeshall use the Training Source Set in trainingexercises or classes involving individuals under18 years of age.

A.37 Personnel Monitoring EquipmentEach licensee shall issue a CD V-138 dosimeteror an equivalent dose recording instrument toeach individual entering a restricted area.

A.38 RecordsEach licensee shall maintainrecords showing the radiation exposure of allindividuals exposed to radiation from radio-active materials in his possession. Theserecords shall show the name, age, date of birth,Social Security number, method of determiningthe close (i.e., film badge, CD V-138 dosimeter,etc.) and the total weekly whole body gammaradiation dose of each individual. Summariesof the total whole body gamma dose .for eachcalendar quarter, or 3-month period, and thetotal yearly whole body gamma close shall be

The permissible accumulateddose to gamma radiation can he obtained fromthe formula,

PAD = 5 (N -18)

where PAD is the permissible accumulatedgamma, close in roentgens (r) and N is the age ofthe individual being considered in years and isgreater than 18. These radiation exposure rec-ords of each individual must be preserved bythe licensee until December 31, 1965, or until 5years after the date of the last exposure of theindividual to radioactive material in the custodyof the licensee. Each licensee shall. maintainrecords showing the results of surveys asrequired by paragraph A.30. Each licenseeshall keep records showing the use, receipt,and transfer of an OCD. Training Source Set.It is suggested that the licensee maintain alog of the activities involving the Set issued tohim.

A.39 InspectionEach licensee shall affordto the AEC and to OCD at all reasonable timesopportunity to inspect the Training SourceSet, the premises, and the facilities where theSet is used or stored, and shall make availablefor inspection, upon reasonable notice, required_records kept by him.

A.40 Inspection of Source CapsulesWhenthe sources are retismpfl to their lead containersafter being removed for any purpose, eachsource must be monitored with a CD V-700to insure that the Co" source 'material is con-tained inside each capsule. This monitoringshould be performed at a distance from theother sources where the gamma radiation levelsare not significantly above natural back-ground. Each source capsule must be in-spected each time the source set,is used.

A.41 Loss or Theft of Sealed .SourcesThelicensee is required to report Promptly to theAEC any loss or theft of radioactive material insuch quantities and under such circumstancesthat it appears to ',he licensee that a substantial

hazard may result to persons in unrestrictedareas. However, the licensee is requested tonotify the OCD Regional Radiological DefenseOfficer immediately in the event of a suspectedloss or theft of a sealed source or.sourees,nof anaccident resulting from a leaking source. Thiswill enable the Radiological Defense Officer toassist the licensee in determining whether or nota loss has occurred, in determining the serious-ness of an accident, and in .notification of theAEC, if required.

A.42 Loss of Cow Source Material from theCapsuleIn the event that an empty sourcecapsule is discovered during the inspection,required by paragraph A,40, the remainingsource capsules should be secured in the leadcontainers. After monitoring personnel in thearea for possible contamination and wipe testingthe outside of the CD V-792 to insure that it isnot contaminated, move the sources in the leadcontainers out of the general area wherethey were in use. Using a CD V-700, mon-itor the entire area until the Cow is locatedwithin a small area (less than 1 square foot).If the Cow material, which is a small needle, canbe seen with the naked eye, it should be pickedup and placed in the lead container along withthe other sources and the empty source capsule,using the CD V-788 handling tongs or a pair oflong-handled forceps or pliers. The Cow mate-rial should not be picked up with the fingers underany circumstances, nor should any attempt bemade to return the Cot.'" needle to the empty sourcecapsule. If the Uouu material is on an earth,sand, or gravel surface, it can be carefullyscooped up with a shovel and placed along withthe earth, etc., in the large CD V-792 container.No attempt should be made to separate the Cowneedle from the extraneous material. Once theCow material is inside the lead containers, theyshould be marked, sealed, and the sourcestreated as if they were leaking, as described inparagraph A.17.

A.43 After completing the operations de-scribed in paragraph A.42, the general area andndthe personnel and equipment used to pick upthe Co'r material should again be monitored toinsure that they are free of radioactive contam-ination. Until the Cow material iN round, thegeneral area should be restricted to all personnelexcept those involved in the monitoring opera-

tions. If monitoring of the area fails to indicatethe presence of contamination after the Co"material has been located and removed, thearea may be returned to unrestricted status ifnecessary. However, it is suggested that thearea be monitored by someone qualified in thefield of health physics, at the request of thelicensee, prior to returning it to unrestricted use.The licensee must report the incident to theOCD Regional Radiological Defense Officer assoon as possible to request disposition and re-placement of the Source Set. In accordancewith the conditions of his license, the licenseemust also report the incident to the AECwithin 30 days.

A.44 If the Co" source material cannot belocated, or the presence of radioactive contam-ination is detected as a result of the incident,the OCD Regional Radiological Defense Officernm/ be contacted immediately for assistance.

A.45 Transfer Temporary loan of OCDTraining Sonrce Sets to-other licensees withinthe United States authorized to receive suchmaterial is allowed. However, if a licensee pos-sessing an OCD Training Source Set antici-pates moving from his present location to an-other, and, if the new location will prohibithim from exercising the required control andsupervision of the Source Set, he must reportthis intention as soon as possible to the Statecivil defense office. The State office may per-manently transfer the Set to another licenseewith the approval of OCD or return the Set toOCD. if it is transferred to another licensee,the new custodian must furnish to the Statecivil defense office for transmittal to OCD: (1)a copy of his byproduct material license, and(2) a letter indicating receipt of the TrainingSource Set and acceptance of responsibility forit. If the Set is to be returned to OCD, theState must notify the OCD regional office andaction will be initiated for the return of the Setdirectly from the custodian.

A.46 Renewal of Byproduct Material Li-censesA Training Source Set custodian mustmake application for renewal of his license 60days prior to its expiration or he must notifyOCD, through the State civil defense office, ofhis intentions not to initiate license renewal andrequest disposition instructions for the Set.

A.47 ViolationsThe. licensee is responsibleto the AEC for the proper use and storage ofthe Training Source Set and for compliancewith 10-CFR-20, Standards for ProtectionAgainst Radiation, or 10-CFR-30, Licensing ofByproduct Material.

A.48 Return of Sets-All OCD TrainingSource Sets loaned to the States shall be returnedto OCD when the licensee and the State desireto be relieved of the responsibility for the Sets.Arrangements, for the disposition of the SourceSets should be made with the OCD RegionalOffice through the State civil defense office.

A.49 Transport of Training Source SetsThe OCD Training Source Sets may be trans-ported to the training site in a vehicle, pro-vided the source set is padlocked, the vehicle islocked, and the vehicle is posted on both sidesand the rear with radiation signs with thestatement "DangerousRadioactive Material"in 3-inch letters on a contrasting background.'Phis type of sign may be obtained from somelocal trucker's associations. The automobileshould be monitored to determine radiationlevels within it, and the occupants should wearCD V-138 dosimeters to measure their exposureduring transport of the Set.

A.50 State and City RegulationsIn addi-tion to AEC and OCD regulations, many Statesand cities have additional requirements whichgovern the use, storage, and particularly thetransportation of radioactive materials. It isthe licensee's responsibility to contact theappropriate State and city departments forinformation on such regulations.

AEC LICENSING OF OCD SOURCE SETS FOR RADIOLOGICALMONITOR TRAINING

The Division of Materials Licensing of theAtomic Energy Commission has the responsi-bility for the licensing of byproduct material(radioisotopes). This means, therefore, that theAEC has the responsibility and authority tolicense the possession and use of any radio-isotope which is produced in a nuclear reactor.The Cobalt 60 used in the sealed sources in theOCD Training Source Sets is a byproductmaterial and, therefore, is subject to AECregulations. The conduct of a RadiologicalMonitoring Course requires that the instructordo licensed to possess and use the OCD Cobalt60 Sealed Source Set (CD V-784).* Thislicensing authority has been delegated toseveral of the States, but their regulationshave to be consistent with the USAEC regula-tions. For further details, see Title 10AtomicEnergy, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 150,"Exemptions and Continued Regulatory Au--thority in Agreement States Under Section274."

In order to implement this licensing au-thority, the AEC has issued a specific regulationwhich sets forth the basic criteria for issuanceof byproduct material licenses (Form AEC 374).This regulation is Title 10Atomic Energy,Code of Federal Regulations, Part 30, "Rulesof General Applicabill y to Licensing of By-.product Material" (10 3FR 30). The USAECrules and regulations for the safe use of radio-active material are contained in Title 10Atomic Energy, Code of Federal Regulations,Part 20, "Standards for Protection AgainstRadiation" (10 CFR 20). This regulationestablishes standards under which all licensedradioactive materials must be used. One ofthe first provisions in 10 CFR 30 is a statementof who must have a license for possession anduse of byproduct material. The regulation statesthat no person in the United States shall

acquire, possess, use or transfer byproductmaterial except as authorized by a licenseissued by the AEC.

The possession and use of any OCD ModelCD V-784 Cobalt 60 Source Set requires aspecific license. Specific licenses are those forwhich an application must be submitted to theAEC. The minimum requirements for approvalof an application and issue of a license are thatthe applicant has (1) proposed a use authorizedby the Atomic Energy Act of 1954; (2) equip-ment and facilities adequate to protect healthand 'minimize danger to life or property; and(3) personnel qualified by training and experi-ence to use the material for the proposed usein such a manner as to protect health and mini-mized danger to life or property. These are broadrequirements and not specific for any particulartype of program. Each application for a specificlicense must, therefore, contain complete anddetailed information describing the applicant'squalifications and proposed procedures.

A problem that has been frequently encoun-tered in the licensing program is the determina-tion of who is responsible for the UCD TrainingSource Sei, and who should be the applicantand, subsequently, the licensee. The licenseeby definition must be a legally responsible"person." A "person" is defined in 10 CFR 30as an individual, corporation, partnership, firm,association, trust, estate, public or privateinstitution, group, government agency otherthan the AEC, any State or any politicalsubdivision thereof, or any political entitywithin a State. Therefore, when a legally con-stituted sponsoring organization exists, whethera. governmental agency at the State, cuz:lity,city, or Federal level or a corporate organiza-tion, n.nd the individual who will actually usethe Source Set acts as an agent of the sponsoringorganization, then the organization must bethe licensee. The Office of Civil Defense haslegal authority under section 201(h) of PublicLaw 920, gtst Congress, as amended, to dis-

tribute the Cobalt 60 Training Source Sets byloan for civil defense purposes only to theStates. Therefore, training source sets havebeen loaned to State Civil Defense organiza-tions, who in turn have made them availableto localities in support of their civil defenseprograms:

in past years many AEC licenses have beenissued to individuals who have satisfactorilycompleted the Radiological Monitoring for In-structors course. There have been numerousapplications for individual licenses where theindividual would more appropriately have beennamed as a "user" under a State or localCivil Defense organization license. OCD andthe AEC have completed a review of the li-censing of OCD Cobalt 60 Sealed Source Setsfor the training of radiological monitors. Sincethe applicant, and subsequently, the licenseeis legally responsible for the safe use and pos-session of the OCD Training Source Set, it isinappropriate that an individual be the licensee.It is most appropriate that each State CivilDefense agency have one license for the useof all training source sets for all radiologicalmonitor training within the State.

Effective immediately, it is the joint policyof OCD and AEC not to issue or renew a by-product material license to an individual formonitor training in a State subsequent to issu-ance of a license to the State Civil Defenseagency for the use, possession, and storage ofall OCD Cobalt 60 Sealed Source Sets.

Each person who will use the OCD sealedsources for radiological monitor training musthave an understanding of the basic principlesof nuclear radiation and radiation safety. Sec-tion 30.33(a)(3), Title 10 CFR, Part 30, re-quires only that an applicant be qualified bytraining and experience to use the byproductmaterial for the purpose requested in such amanner as to protect health and minimizedanger to life and property. A person who (1)has satisfactorily completed an OCD Radio-logical Monitoring for Instructors course givenby An authorized organization and instructorand (2) has a general background which wouldpermit him to comprehend the subject matterpresented in such a course, cr,ii e rally beauthorized as a user on an agency's specificlicense to use an OCD source set to train moni-tors. It is impossible to define the exact natureof the background which someone must have

because definite requirements would probablyrestrict and hamper the radiological monitortraining program. As a general guideline, aperson should have a scientific/technical back-ground that would enable him to understandthe basic principles of radiation to the extentthat he may be in a position to impart necessarytechnical information to others.

When adequate selection criteria have beenestablished by an applicant such as the StateCivil Defense agency and sufficient sourcehandling procedures have been developed andpublished, the AEC will issue a specific licenseto the State organization that will allow it toauthorize any individual that meets the'statedminimum formal training and experience cri-teria to use a training source set for the trainingof monitors. Individuals by name need not belisted on the license (or application). In thoseStates where this type of procedure is in effect,some type of "user permit" is normally issuedto each individual that has a need to use,possess or store a source set.

Since the civil defense training program in-volves both the training of monitors andmonitor instructors, OCD and the AEC differ-entiate between the minimal required formaltraining and experience for persons who willtrain only monitors and that required forpersons who will train monitor instructors.Persons who will train instructors must have abroad background in the radiation field. Sucha person must have a knowledge of radiationbeyond the scope of the principles presented inthe OCD Radiological Monitoring for Instruc-tors course. Additional information regardingthe minimal required formal training and ex-perience for persons who will train- monitorinstructors is contained in OCD memorandumdated September 14, 1964, Subject: "Guidelinesfor Byproduct Material Licensing in Connectionwith the Conduct of the Radiological Moni-toring for Instructors Course." The training ofmonitor instructors is conducted primarily atselected universities.

Each R\II instructor is familiar with thedetails of the licensing program for monitortraining in his State. Additional specific infor-mation about the current details of the licensingprogram for training monitors in each State isto be obtained from the State Civil Defenseoffice.
