THE ORCBS > Radiation Safety > Radiation Safety Manual >
The NRC requires
that all licensees maintain records tracking the receipt, use and
disposal of radioactive materials. This is done with an inventory
maintained in a database at the ORCBS. Shipments of radioactive materials
are logged into the database for each principal investigator ordering
the material. Additionally, workers using the material, training dates,
locations where material is used, monitoring equipment and radioisotope
approvals are maintained in the database. Periodically, a printout
of information for a project leader will be sent to the laboratory,
and information must be updated and corrections made. This information
is a legal record subject to inspection by any regulatory agency;
efforts must be made to keep records as accurate and complete as possible
to prevent NRC violations.
