| (a) No licensee shall deliver any source material,
by-product material, or other licensed radioactive material to a carrier
for transport, unless:
(1) the licensee complies with the applicable requirements
of the rules, appropriate to the mode of transport, of the United
States Department of Transportation insofar as those rules relate
to the packing of radioactive material and to the monitoring, marking,
and labeling of those packages or containers;
(2) the licensee establishes procedures for opening
and closing packages and containers in which radioactive material
is transported to provide safety and to assure that, prior to the
delivery to a carrier for transport, each package or container is
properly closed for transport; and
(3) the licensee assures that any special instructions
needed to safely open the package or container are sent to or have
been made available to the consignee prior to delivery of a package
or container to a carrier for transport.
(b) For the purpose of subsection (a) of this section,
licensees who transport their own licensed material as private carriers
are considered to have delivered the material to a carrier for transport.
