AMRSOers,

This was news to me!(
http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/news/2005/05-109.pdf
) Especially this part...

"Under this legislation, the NRC will for the first
time have regulatory authority over additional
radioactive materials, including certain sources of
radium-226 and materials produced in accelerators
rather than in reactors."

This will be interesting as it "ripples" forth...

. . .
