N.J. Admin. Code § 7:28-48.2
The following words and terms, when used in this subchapter, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
"Controlling interest" means the interest held by the person or persons who owns more than 50 percent of the voting stock or other equity interest in an owner; it also means the interest held by a person or persons who owns 50 percent or less of the voting stock or other equity interest in an owner and who possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies in an owner.
"Dispose" or "disposal" means the discarding or destroying of a nonionizing radiation producing source.
"Gigahertz" (GHz) means 1,000,000,000 hertz or cycles per second.
"Kilohertz" (kHz) means 1,000 hertz or cycles per second.
"Megahertz" (MHz) means 1,000,000 hertz or cycles per second.
"Microwave heater, sealer and industrial oven" means any source which uses microwave radiation between the frequencies of 300 MHz and 100 GHz to heat, melt, dry, cure, sanitize, disinfect or alter the chemical composition of materials such as, but not limited to, plastics, rubber, glue, wood, dyes or food.
"Microwave radiation" means, for the purposes of this subchapter, nonionizing radiation between the frequencies of 300 MHz and 100 GHz. (By convention, microwave radiation describes all the frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz. Microwave radiation is a subset of the radiofrequency radiation spectrum.)
"Nonionizing radiation" means radiation which does not have the capability of ionizing the medium through which it is passing.
"Nonionizing radiation producing source" or "source" means, for the purposes of this subchapter, any equipment, machine or device capable of emitting nonionizing radiation between the frequencies of 300 kHz and 100 GHz.
"Owner" means a person who has title to a radiation source or who possesses a radiation source as a lessee, bailee or pursuant to the terms of a registration issued by the Department, by a Federal agency, or by any other state.
"Person" includes an individual, corporation, partnership, firm, association, trust, estate, public or private institution, group, municipality, any state or other legal entity; and any legal successor, representative agent, or agency of the foregoing.
"Radiation area" means an area which is accessible to a worker and in which there exists levels of nonionizing radiation that exceed the maximum permissible levels of such radiation as specified in the rules of the Commission.
"Radiation Assessment Document" means a form or series of forms issued by the Department requiring information such as, but not limited to, radiation frequency, duty cycle of each source, the source operator's position in relation to each source and any additional information which will be used to predict radiation levels in the areas surrounding nonionizing radiation producing sources.
"Radiofrequency radiation" means, for the purposes of this subchapter, nonionizing radiation between the frequencies of 300 kHz and 100 GHz. (By convention, radiofrequency radiation described all the frequencies below 300 GHz, with microwave radiation as a subset of the radiofrequency radiation spectrum.)
"Radiofrequency heater and sealer" means any source, including induction and dielectric heaters, which uses radiofrequency radiation between the frequencies of 300 kHz and 299 MHz to heat, melt, dry, cure, sanitize, disinfect or alter the chemical composition of materials such as, but not limited to, plastics, rubber, glue, wood, dyes or food.
"Registration" means the submission by the owner and receipt by the Department of the completed registration form and Radiation Assessment Document, and the payment of fees.
"Transferee" means a person who obtains either:
1. Ownership of a nonionizing radiation producing source; or
2. A controlling interest in the owner of such a source.
"Transferor" means a person who sells or otherwise transfers either:
1. A nonionizing radiation producing source; or
2. A controlling interest in the owner of such a source.
