The issue of sending polonium static elimination devices to our customers has come up. It is my understanding that the devices in question, which are 10CFR31.3 devices (<500 microcuries), can be sent, and we need to notify the federal Director of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards. In addition, the customer must comply with the requirements of 10CFR31.5, which deals with testing, record keeping, transfer, safety documentation, tracking, reporting theft or loss of material, among other things. Am I on the right track here?
