1. To convert the curies/cubic meter (Ci/m3) value to gigabecquerels/cubic
meter, multiply the Ci/m3 value by 37.
2. There are no limits established for these radionuclides in Class B or C wastes.
Practical considerations such as the effects of external radiation and internal heat
generation on transportation, handling, and disposal will limit the concentrations for
these wastes. These wastes shall be Class B unless the concentrations of other
radionuclides in Table II determine the waste to be Class C independent of these
radionuclides.
