The rest of the regulation in 10 CFR 30 indicates that no person may

manufacture or distribute such exempt quantities unless specifically

authorized by the the US NRC.  So in this case all the burden of

responsibility legally rests with the initial distributor of the device or

quantities.  The authorization granted by the US NRC for distribution may

hinge on the training/design of the product as well as the quantity.



The thoughts expressed are mine, mine, all mine!
