Section 6 CCR 1007-1-24.12 - Calibration of Survey Instruments
24.12.1 The registrant shall ensure that the survey instruments used to show compliance with this part have been calibrated before first use, at intervals not to exceed twenty-four (24) months, and following repair.
24.12.2 To satisfy the requirements of 24.12.1, the registrant shall:
24.12.2.1 Calibrate all required scale readings up to 10 mSv (1000 mrem) per hour with an appropriate radiation source that is traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST); and
24.12.2.2 Calibrate at least two (2) points, at approximately 1/3 and 2/3 of full-scale, on each scale to be calibrated; and
24.12.3 To satisfy the requirements of 24.12.2, the registrant shall:
24.12.3.1 Consider a point as calibrated if the indicated dose rate differs from the calculated dose rate by not more than ten (10) percent; or
24.12.3.2 Consider a point as calibrated if the indicated dose rate differs from the calculated dose rate by not more than twenty (20) percent if a correction factor or graph is conspicuously attached to the instrument.
24.12.4 The registrant may obtain the services of individuals licensed by the Department, NRC, an Agreement State, or a Licensing State to perform calibrations of survey instruments.
24.12.5 The registrant shall retain a record of each calibration required in 24.12.1 for three (3) years. The record shall include:
24.12.5.1 A description of the calibration procedure;
24.12.5.2 A description of the source used;
24.12.5.3 The certified dose rates from the source;
24.12.5.4 The rates indicated by the instrument being calibrated;
24.12.5.5 The correction factors deduced from the calibration data;
24.12.5.6 The signature of the individual who performed the calibration; and
24.12.5.7 The date of calibration.
