Ruth, 10 CFR Part 71 regulations are not applicable to shipment of fiesta ware and
are applicable to NRC licensed material (General or Specific).  These regulations
are not geared at routine shipments of RAM, that DOT's bailiwick.  Other than
some large quantity LSA shipments and those shipments with greater than Type A
quantities, 10 CFR 71.5 specifically requires all NRC licensee's to comply with the
49 CFR regulations for shipping RAM.  49 CFR address in detail compliance with
several issues not covered in 10 CFR 71, especially limited quantities, packaging,
and labeling of packages.
