Sec. 6.
(a) Except as
authorized by the board pursuant to
410 IAC 5-4-6(b) no licensee or registrant
shall possess, use, or transfer sources of radiation in such a manner as to
create in any unrestricted area from such sources of radiation in his
possession:
(1) Radiation levels which, if an
individual were continuously present in the area, could result in his receiving
a dose in excess of 2 millirems in any 1 hour; or
(2) Radiation levels which, if an individual
were continuously present in the area could result in his receiving a dose in
excess of 100 millirems in any 7 consecutive days.
(b) Any person may apply to the board for
proposed limits upon levels of radiation in unrestricted areas in excess of
those specified in
410 IAC 5-4-6(a) resulting from the applicant's possession
or use of sources of radiation. Such applications should include information as
to anticipated average radiation levels and anticipated occupancy times for
each unrestricted area involved. The board will approve the proposed limits if
the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the board that the proposed
limits are not likely to cause any individual to receive a dose to the whole
body in any period of 1 calendar year in excess of 0.5 rem.
9/ It is the intent of 410 IAC 5-4-6 to limit radiation levels so that it is unlikely that individuals in
unrestricted areas would receive a dose to the whole body in excess of 0.5 rem
in any one year. If in specific instances, it is determined by the board that
this intent is not met, the board may, pursuant to
410 IAC 5-1-7, impose such additional requirements on the
licensee or registrant as may be necessary to meet the intent.
