ABSTRACT

A concise set of procedures is presented to aid laboratory personnel in complying with Part 20.205 of Title 10, Chapter 1, of the Code of Federal Regulations, concerning the receipt and monitoring of radioactive materials. Because these regulations were written for a large and diverse community of licensees, they are difficult to implement on a day-to-day basis. The procedures presented here reduce the regulations to an operationally functional form.
