All
procurement, handling, transfer, and use of radioactive materials must be
authorized by an EH&S liaison. If any of these materials need to
be moved, call the Radiation Protection Group's Transportation Office.
All of this material must be kept within Controlled Areas (posted with blue
and white notice signs for example). Radioactive material itself displays a yellow and
black or yellow and magenta label with a trefoil symbol. All employees should
be familiar with these signs as most buildings at National Labs have had
radioactive material in them at some time. If you notice an item with the
trefoil symbol located outside of a Controlled Area, notify the Radiation
Protection Group.
