Section 6 CCR 1007-1-16.22 - Radiation surveys
16.22.1 The licensee shall make radiation surveys, including but not limited to the surveys required by 16.22.2 through 16.22.5, of each area where licensed materials are used and stored.
16.22.2 Before transporting licensed materials, the licensee shall make a radiation survey of the position occupied by each individual in the vehicle and of the exterior of each vehicle used to transport the licensed materials.
16.22.3 If the sealed source assembly is removed from the logging tool before departure from the temporary jobsite, the licensee shall confirm that the logging tool is free of contamination by energizing the logging tool detector or by using a survey meter.
16.22.4 If the licensee has reason to believe that, as a result of any operation involving a sealed source, the encapsulation of the sealed source could be damaged by the operation, the licensee shall conduct a radiation survey, including a contamination survey, during and after the operation.
16.22.5 The licensee shall make a radiation survey at the temporary jobsite before and after each subsurface tracer study to confirm the absence of contamination.
16.22.6 The results of surveys required pursuant to 16.22.1 through 16.22.5 must be recorded and must include:
16.22.6.1 The date(s) of the survey;
16.22.6.2 The name of the individual(s) making the survey;
16.22.6.3 The identification of the survey;
16.22.6.4 Instrument(s) used; and
16.22.6.5 The location of the survey.

The licensee shall retain records of the surveys for inspection by the Department for 3 years after they are made.

Contamination control.

16.22.7 If the licensee detects evidence that a sealed source has ruptured or radioactive materials have caused contamination, the licensee shall initiate immediately the emergency procedures required by 16.16.
16.22.8 If contamination results from the use of radioactive material in well logging, the licensee shall decontaminate all personnel, work areas, equipment, and unrestricted areas.
16.22.9 During efforts to recover a sealed source lodged in the well, the licensee shall continuously monitor, with an appropriate radiation detection instrument or a logging tool with a radiation detector, the circulating fluids from the well, if any, to check for contamination resulting from damage to the sealed source.
