Re: Exempt quantities



If you read 10 CFR 30.18, you'll see that it only applies to  exempt persons,
i.e. a person who does not have a license and who legally handles only
individual quantities less than Schedule B.  However, if you have a license,
then ALL of your RAM is governed by the conditions of this license, including
restrictions on the transfer, i.e., disposal of this material.

The opinions expressed are strictly mine.
It's not about dose, it's about trust.
