(b) This notification must indicate:

(A) The bankruptcy court in which the petition for bankruptcy was filed; and

(B) The date of the filing of the petition.

(10) Sealed sources or detector cells containing licensed material must not be opened or sources removed from source holders or detector cells by the licensee.

(11) No licensee may acquire licensed radioactive material in a sealed source or in a device that contains a sealed source unless the source or device has been registered with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission under 10 CFR 32.210 or with an Agreement State.

(12) Any sealed source fabricated by a licensee must be registered, inspected, and tested for construction defects, leakage, and contamination prior to any use or transfer as a sealed source in accordance with requirements in 10 CFR 32.210.

(13) Each licensee must conduct a physical inventory at intervals not to exceed six months to account for all radioactive material received and possessed by licensee. Inventories must include the types and quantities of radioactive material, location of materials, date of receipt, and the date of the inventory; and for sealed sources, the inventory must include the types and quantities of sealed sources, sealed source manufacturer, model number, serial number, date of receipt, condition of sealed sources, and the date of the inventory. Records of the inventories required by this section must be kept until inspection by the Authority.

(14) Each licensee must transport radioactive material or deliver radioactive material to a carrier for transport in accordance with the provisions of Parts 170 through 189 of Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations and in accordance with division 118 of this chapter, "Transportation of Radioactive Material."

Inspections must include condition of labeling and posting of each radiation device, and corrective actions taken if any; condition of shutter operation, if applicable, of each device, and corrective actions taken if any; and location of each device. Records of the inspections required by this section must be kept until inspection by the Authority.

(16) No licensee may open or remove radioactive material from sealed sources or detector cells containing licensed radiation sources.

(17) No person may repair, modify, dismantle, or effect any change in licensed devices or radiation sources, nor modify nor alter labels affixed to licensed devices by the manufacturer

Records of all surveys must be maintained for inspection by the Radiation Protection Services section.

(19) If the licensee has previously determined that monitoring for internal exposure pursuant to OAR 333-120-0130, 333-120-0210, or 333-120-0320 is required, the data and results of this evaluation must be placed in the worker's exposure records and included the worker's Oregon Form Z report.

Each portable device containing licensed radioactive materials must be secured using a minimum of two independent physical controls that form two separate tangible barriers to prevent unauthorized removal or use, whenever the portable device is not under the direct control and constant surveillance of the licensee.

(30) Authorization under OAR 333-102-0190(10)(c)(N) to produce Positron Emission Tomography (PET) radiopharmaceutical drugs for noncommercial transfer to medical use licensees in its consortium does not relieve the licensee from complying with applicable FDA, other federal, and state requirements governing radiopharmaceutical drugs.
