Section 333-116-0610 - Modification of Teletherapy Unit or Room Before Beginning a Treatment Program

(1) If the survey required by OAR 333-116-0590 indicates that any individual member of the public is likely to receive a dose in excess of the limits specified in 333-120-0180, before beginning the treatment program the licensee must:

(a) Either equip the unit with stops or add additional radiation shielding to ensure compliance with OAR 333-120-0180;

(b) Perform the survey required by OAR 333-116-0590 again; and

(c) Include in the report required by OAR 333-116-0620 the results of the initial survey, a description of the modification made to comply with subsection (1)(a) of this rule, and the results of the second survey.

(2) As an alternative to the requirements set out in subsection (1)(a) of this rule a licensee may request a license amendment under OAR 333-120-0180(3) that authorizes radiation levels in unrestricted areas greater than those permitted by 333-120-0180(1). A licensee may not begin the treatment program until the license amendment has been issued.
