Section 333-120-0000 - Purpose

(1) This division establishes standards for protection against ionizing radiation resulting from activities conducted under licenses and registrations issued by the Authority. These rules are issued under ORS 453.605 to 453.807, and the State of Oregon's agreement with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

(2) It is the purpose of the rules in this division to control the receipt, possession, use, transfer, and disposal of licensed radioactive material and sources of radiation by any licensee or registrant in such a manner that the total dose to an individual (including doses resulting from licensed and unlicensed radioactive material and from radiation sources other than background radiation) does not exceed the standards for protection against radiation prescribed in this division. However, nothing in this division shall be construed as limiting actions that may be necessary to protect health and safety.
