NAC459.8295. Determination of concentration of radionuclide.
Latest version.
-
1. The concentration of a radionuclide may be determined by an indirect method such as the use of a scaling factor which relates the inferred concentration of one radionuclide to the concentration of another that is measured, or by radionuclide material accountability, if there is a reasonable assurance that the indirect method can be correlated with actual measurements.
2. The concentration of a radionuclide may be averaged over the volume of the waste, or over the weight of the waste if the concentration is expressed as nanocuries per gram.
