105 CMR, § 120.240 - Labeling Containers and Radiation Machines
(A) The licensee shall ensure that each
container of licensed material bears a durable, clearly visible label bearing
the radiation symbol and the words "CAUTION, RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL" or "DANGER,
RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL." The label shall also provide information, such as the
radionuclides present, an estimate of the quantity of radioactivity, the date
for which the activity is estimated, radiation levels, kinds of materials, and
mass enrichment, to permit individuals handling or using the containers, or
working in the vicinity of the containers, to take precautions to avoid or
minimize exposures.
(B) Each
licensee shall, prior to removal or disposal of empty uncontaminated containers
to unrestricted areas, remove or deface the radioactive material label or
otherwise clearly indicate that the container no longer contains radioactive
materials.
(C) Each registrant
shall ensure that each radiation machine is labeled in a conspicuous manner
which cautions individuals that radiation is produced when it is
energized.
