Paragraph 3

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

LSA material and SCO in groups LSA-I and SCO-I may be transported unpackaged under the following conditions:

(a)

all unpackaged material other than ores containing only naturally occurring radionuclides shall be transported in such a manner that under conditions likely to be encountered in routine transport there will be no escape of the contents from the conveyance nor will there be any loss of shielding;

(b)

each conveyance shall be under exclusive use, except when only transporting SCO-I on which the contamination on the accessible and the inaccessible surfaces is not greater than ten times the applicable level specified in table III of Schedule 36; and

(c)

for SCO-I where it is suspected that non-fixed contamination exists on inaccessible surfaces in excess of the values specified in paragraph (i) of the definition of “SCO-I” in regulation 2(1) measures shall be taken to ensure that the radioactive material is not released into the conveyance.
