(1) "High priority radiation machine," a radiation machine, which has high potential for exposing humans by means of heavy use, high radiation exposure, specialized use for radiosensitive areas of the human body, or misadjustment or malfunction of radiation safety features. A high priority radiation machine is further defined as one of the following machine types, or a machine that is used by any of the following categories of users:

(A) Orthopedist.

(B) Radiologist.

(C) Chiropractor.

(D) Hospital.

(E) Medical clinic.

(F) Portable X-ray service (human use).

(G) Fluoroscope used on humans.

(I) Non-human use particle accelerator with maximum energy capable of equaling or exceeding 10 MeV.

(J) Non-human use radiation machine used in field radiography, as defined in section 30330.

(2) "Medium priority radiation machine," a radiation machine not covered by subsections (a)(1), (a)(3) or (a)(4).

(3) "Dental priority radiation machine," a radiation machine used exclusively in dental radiography of human beings.

(4) "Special priority radiation machine," a radiation machine used for mammography.

(b) When a radiation machine is equipped with two or more tubes that can be used separately, each tube shall be considered as a single radiation machine.

(c) For registration or renewal of registration as a general licensee pursuant to section 30192.1, the fee shall be $104.00 for each device in possession, except that persons possessing such devices under a specific license shall be exempt from this fee.

(d) Except as provided in subsection (e), initial registration shall be valid for a period of one year.

(e) The initial registration period for a reportable source of radiation being registered by a person who has a reportable source of radiation already registered with the Department shall be coterminous with the existing registration.

(f) Any fees collected for a radiation machine or a device for any registration period shall be transferred to any replacement radiation machine or device for the remainder of the registration period.

(g) For initial registration or renewal of registration, the fees shall be $319.00 annually for each high priority radiation machine, $256.00 annually for each medium priority radiation machine, $118.00 annually for each dental priority radiation machine and, except as provided in section 30145.1, $709.00 annually for each special priority radiation machine. Where the initial registration period is less than one year pursuant to subsection (e), the initial registration fee shall be prorated, based on the priority classification and number of full months in the initial registration period in accordance with the following formula:

Initial Registration Fee = A x [B/ (12 Months)]

Where:

A = Annual fee as specified above, dollars per year

B = Number of full months remaining in coterminous period

(h) The total registration fee paid by a registrant for high priority, medium priority, special priority, and dental priority radiation machines, which are at the same installation, shall not exceed $8,949.00 per year.

(i) A late fee of 25% of the annual fee shall be charged for any registration fee which is 30 days past due.

(j) Fees required by this section shall be nonrefundable.
