* To convert µCi to kBq, multiply the µCi value by 37.

** Based on alpha disintegration rate of Th-232, Th-230 and their daughter products.

*** Based on alpha disintegration rate of U-238, U-234, and U-235.

QUANTITIES FOR USE WITH DECOMMISSIONING

Material

Microcurie*

Any alpha emitting radionuclide not listed above or mixtures of alpha emitters of unknown composition

0.01

Any radionuclide other than alpha emitting radionuclides, not listed above or mixtures of beta emitters of unknown composition

0.1

* To convert µCi to kBq, multiply the µCi value by 37.

NOTE: Where there is involved a combination of isotopes in known amounts, the limit for the combination should be derived as follows: Determine, for each isotope in the combination, the ratio between the quantity present in the combination and the limit otherwise established for the specific isotope when not in combination. The sum of such ratios for all the isotopes in the combination may not exceed 1 -- that is, unity.
