Ohio Admin. Code 3701:1-38-07 - General provisions; purpose, scope, and communications
(A) Chapter
3701:1-38 of the Administrative Code establishes standards for protection
against ionizing radiation resulting from activities conducted under licenses
and registrations issued by the director. It is the purpose of Chapter
3701:1-38 of the Administrative Code to control the receipt, possession, use,
transfer, and disposal of radiation sources by any licensee or registrant in
such a manner that the total dose to an individual, including doses resulting
from licensed and unlicensed radioactive material and from radiation sources
other than background radiation, does not exceed the standards for protection
against radiation prescribed in this chapter. The rules in Chapter 3701:1-38 of
the Administrative Code apply to facilities that receive, possess, use,
transfer, or dispose of radioactive material, and to handlers of
radiation-generating equipment. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed as
limiting actions of the director that may be necessary to protect health,
safety or the environment. The limits in Chapter 3701:1-38 of the
Administrative Code do not apply to doses due to background radiation, any
medical administration the individual has received, from exposures to
individuals administered radioactive materials and released in accordance with
rule
3701:1-58-30
of the Administrative Code, or equivalent United States nuclear regulatory
commission or agreement state regulations, or voluntary participation in
medical research programs.
