RE: ISO Standards

For ISO web site, have look to the following address:

To answer your question, if  you look to a couple of iso documents on 
nuclear issues (Beta detection, calibration etc.)  I think I saw that USNRC 
was indeed implicated (Technical committee TC85:Nuclear Energy). I don't 
know if that means that they approve...Verify for yourself in the URL I gave 
you.

I know that I based a couple of my procedures on ISO documents and that the 
Atomic Energy Control Board of Canada may do the same.

Happy Monday, Radsafers.

I recently heard that there is an ISO standard which defines what a
sealed source is, and what the testing requirements are. Do any of you
know what the standard is and its nomenclature? Has the NRC accepted ISO
standards?

Thanks for your help. You can reply to me directly.
