DHS 157.13(3)(3)Special requirements for specific licenses of broad scope.
DHS 157.13(3)(a)(a) This subsection prescribes requirements for the issuance of specific licenses of broad scope for radioactive material and certain regulations governing holders of the licenses.
DHS 157.13(3)(b)(b) The different types of broad scope licenses are as follows:
DHS 157.13(3)(b)1.1. A “Type A specific license of broad scope” is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of the radioactive material specified in the license, but not exceeding quantities specified in the license, for any authorized purpose. The quantities specified are usually in the multicurie range, but may be limited based on types of radioactive materials, proposed use and the training and experience of users.
DHS 157.13(3)(b)2.2. A “Type B specific license of broad scope” is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of radioactive material specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, for any authorized purpose. The possession limit for a Type B license of broad scope, if only one radionuclide is possessed under the license, is the quantity specified for that radionuclide in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column I. If 2 or more radionuclides are possessed under the license, the possession limit for each is determined as follows: For each radionuclide, determine the ratio of the quantity possessed to the applicable quantity specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column I, for that radionuclide. The sum of the ratios for all radionuclides possessed under the license may not exceed unity.
DHS 157.13(3)(b)3.3. A “Type C specific license of broad scope” is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of radioactive material specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, for any authorized purpose. The possession limit for a Type C license of broad scope, if only one radionuclide is possessed thereunder, is the quantity specified for that radionuclide in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column II. If 2 or more radionuclides are possessed thereunder, the possession limit is determined for each as follows: For each radionuclide, determine the ratio of the quantity possessed to the applicable quantity specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column II, for that radionuclide. The sum of the ratios for all radionuclides possessed under the license may not exceed unity.
DHS 157.13(3)(c)(c) The department shall approve an application for a Type A specific license of broad scope if all the following occurs:
DHS 157.13(3)(c)1.1. The applicant satisfies the general requirements specified in sub. (2).
DHS 157.13(3)(c)2.2. The applicant has engaged in a reasonable number of activities involving the use of radioactive material.
DHS 157.13(3)(c)3.3. The applicant has established administrative controls and provisions relating to organization and management, procedures, record keeping, material control, accounting and management review that are necessary to assure safe operations, including all of the following:
DHS 157.13(3)(c)3.a.a. The establishment of a radiation safety committee composed of such persons as a radiation safety officer, a representative of management and persons trained and experienced in the safe use of radioactive material.
DHS 157.13(3)(c)3.b.b. The appointment of a radiation safety officer who is qualified by training and experience in radiation protection and who is available for advice and assistance on radiation safety matters.
DHS 157.13(3)(c)3.c.c. The establishment of appropriate administrative procedures to assure control of procurement and use of radioactive material; completion of safety evaluations of proposed uses of radioactive material which take into consideration such matters as the adequacy of facilities and equipment, training and experience of the user and the operating or handling procedures; and review, approval and recording by the radiation safety committee of safety evaluations of proposed uses prior to use of the radioactive material.
DHS 157.13(3)(d)(d) The department shall approve an application for a Type B specific license of broad scope if all the following occurs:
DHS 157.13(3)(d)1.1. The applicant satisfies the general requirements specified in sub. (2).
DHS 157.13(3)(d)2.2. The applicant has established administrative controls and provisions relating to organization and management, procedures, record keeping, material control, accounting and management review that are necessary to assure safe operations, including all the following:
DHS 157.13(3)(d)2.a.a. The appointment of a radiation safety officer who is qualified by training and experience in radiation protection and who is available for advice and assistance on radiation safety matters.
DHS 157.13(3)(d)2.b.b. The establishment of appropriate administrative procedures to assure control of procurement and use of radioactive material; completion of safety evaluations of proposed uses of radioactive material which take into consideration such matters as the adequacy of facilities and equipment, training and experience of the user and the operating or handling procedures; and review, approval and recording by the radiation safety officer of safety evaluations of proposed uses prior to use of the radioactive material.
DHS 157.13(3)(e)(e) The department shall approve an application for a Type C specific license of broad scope if all the following occurs:
DHS 157.13(3)(e)1.1. The applicant satisfies the general requirements specified in sub. (2).
DHS 157.13(3)(e)2.2. The applicant submits a statement that radioactive material will be used only by or under the direct supervision of individuals who have received all the following:
DHS 157.13(3)(e)2.a.a. A college degree at the bachelor level in the physical or biological sciences or in engineering or equivalent training and experience.
DHS 157.13(3)(e)2.b.b. At least 40 hours of training and experience in the safe handling of radioactive material and in the characteristics of ionizing radiation, units of radiation dose and quantities, radiation detection instrumentation and biological hazards of exposure to radiation appropriate to the type and forms of radioactive material to be used.
DHS 157.13(3)(e)3.3. The applicant has established administrative controls and provisions relating to procurement of radioactive material, procedures, record keeping, material control, accounting and management review necessary to assure safe operations.
DHS 157.13(3)(f)(f) A specific license of broad scope is subject to all of the following conditions:
