[ RadSafe ] Exempt Quantity source shipments

[Peter Fear]

>From what Dan says, it appears that he is shipping the material to himself!
He said in his second message on this that he was moving back to the US from
France and had originally shipped them to himself when he moved there.

	Hold on Dan. I too talked with Larry about this, and he is of
course
the one to ask about shipping regs. The next question is: Who are you
shipping it 
to, and do you have a materials license to transfer radioactive materials?
It is not enough that the material is of exempt quantity, you MUST be
licensed to transfer even exempt quantity, but not to receive it.

Not so. A person may transfer, or in fact do ANYTHING, with a license
exempt
amount of radioactivity. No license is needed.

A person would only need a license to COMMERCIALLY DISTRIBUTE license
exempt
radioactive material.
