Radioactive Materials Transportation Training,,1,Upon Completion of This Module, Unit 1, You Will Be Able to:,Define “radioactive material” according to the IAEA TS-R-1 Determine whether a given material/mixture would be regulated as a radioactive material Using Table 1, determine the proper activity limitation for single and mixtures of radionuclides,2,Authority of IAEA,The IAEA is the only UN agency authorized, by statute, to develop and promulgate regulations for the safe transport of radioactive material Other UN bodies (including the UN Committee of Experts, IMO & ICAO) base their regulatory documents on the IAEA’s Transport Regulations (TS-R-1),3,Nature of the IAEA’s Transport Regulations,Mandatory for IAEA’s own operations Recommended for IAEA Member States China became a Member State in 1984 Usually required for export (if shipping or receiving State has adopted IAEA rules),4,Competent Authority – A Vital Figure in Regulatory Compliance,“Competent Authority shall mean any national or international regulatory body or authority designated or otherwise recognized as such for any purpose in connection with these Regulations.” (¶207),,5,The Role of the Competent Authority for Transport is Broad,Legislation National & international Class 7 regulations Regulation Compliance, inspection and enforcement, & emergency planning Administration Approvals, notifications, records, & package identification marks Information Policy guidance Training Research Who is YOUR Competent Authority?,Competent Authority Legislation,6,Training – A Vital Component of Compliance,Training is needed for: consignors carriers emergency responders customs government staff Training helps assure compliance Compliance assurance is the responsibility of the competent authority,¶ 208,7,Radiological Hazards,RADIATION - the energy and particles from radioactive material CONTAMINATION - radioactive material in places where it is not wanted Removable (non-fixed) Fixed,8,ALARA is a Guiding Philosophy Behind Radioactive Material Transportation Regulations,As Low As Reasonably Achievable,9,Radiation is Measured by the Energy Emitted From a Material,Sievert (in place of REM) Becquerel (in place of Ci) Conversions: − 1 millisievert/hr = 100 mrem/hr − 1 Terabecquerel (TBq) = 27 Curies (Ci),,10,Decimal Conversions Can be a “Down-Right Up-Left(ing)” Experience,11,IAEA Defines a Lower Limit for Radioactive Materials in Transportation,Concentration and Consignment,Concentration and Consignment,Non RAD,RAD,Table 1,Table 1,12,IAEA Defines Radioactive Materials in Two Forms,Special Form (A1) − Material tested and certified per paras. 704-711 − Radiation hazard only - No contamination possible - Use A1 value Normal Form (A2) − Radiation exposure − Contamination possible − Use A2 value,,13,Radioactive Material Activity Limits Are Based on the Radionuclide and Its Form,14,Determining Type A and Greater Than Type A Quantities is a Simple Process,Table 1 A1 or A2 Column amount in TBq,15,Advance Notification for “High Activity” Shipments,16,,Limited Quantities of Radioactive Materials Have Low Activity Limits,Activity Limits per Table 3,17,Radioactive Material Shipments Are Based on the Amount of “Activity” Per Package,“Notification” Quantity,18,Upon Completion of Unit 2 You Will Be Able to:,Determine the most appropriate proper shipping name for a radioactive material or mixture Determine the minimum packaging required for a given radioactive material or mixture Define the term and use for Exclusive Use shipments,19,Radioactive Material Proper Shipping Names,UN2911, Radioactive material, excepted package-instruments or articles UN2909, Radioactive material, excepted package-articles manufactured from natural or depleted uranium or natural thorium UN2908, Radioactive material, excepted package-empty packaging UN2910, Radioactive material, excepted package-limited quantity of material UN2912, Radioactive material, low specific activity (LSA-I), non fissile or fissile-excepted UN3321, Radioactive material, low specific activity (LSA-II), non fissile or fissile-excepted UN3324, Radioactive material, low specific activity (LSA-II), fissile UN3322, Radioactive material, low specific activity (LSA-III), non fissile or fissile-excepted UN3325, Radioactive material, low specific activity (LSA-III), fissile UN2913, Radioactive material, surface contaminated objects (SCO-I or SCO-II), non fissile or fissile-excepted,20,Radioactive Material Proper Shipping Names,UN3326, Radioactive material, surface contaminated objects (SCO-I or SCO-II), fissile UN2919, Radioactive material, transported under special arrangement, non fissile or fissile-excepted UN3331, Radioactive material, transported under special arrangement, fissile UN3327, Radioactive material, Type A Package, fissile, non-special form UN2915, Radioactive material, Type A Package, non-special form, non fissile or fissile-excepted UN3333, Radioactive material, Type A Package, special form, fissile UN3332, Radioactive 。
