§ 30.55 Tritium reports.

(a) [Reserved]

(b) Except as specified in paragraph (d) and (e) of this section, each licensee who is authorized to possess at any one time and location more than 10,000 curies of tritium shall submit to the Commission within thirty (30) days after March 31 and September 30 of each year a statement of his tritium inventory to the nearest hundredth of a gram calculated at 10,000 curies per gram. The reports shall be submitted to the Department of Energy, Post Office Box E, Oak Ridge, Tennessee 37830, and shall include the Reporting Identification Symbol (RIS) assigned by the Commission to the licensee.

(c) Except as specified in paragraph (d) of this section, each licensee who is authorized to possess tritium shall report promptly to the appropriate NRC Regional Office listed in Appendix D of Part 20 of this chapter by telephone and telegraph, mailgram, or facsimile any incident in which an attempt has been made or is believed to have been made to commit a theft or unlawful diversion of more than 10 curies of such material at any one time or more than 100 curies of such material in any one calendar year. The initial report shall be followed within a period of fifteen (15) days by a written report submitted to the appropriate NRC Regional Office which sets forth the details of the incident and its consequences. Copies of such written report shall be sent to the Director of Inspection and Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555. Subsequent to the submission of the written report required by this paragraph, the licensee shall promptly inform the Office of Inspection and Enforcement by means of a written report of any substantive additional information, which becomes available to the licens

ee, concerning an attempted or apparent theft or unlawful diversion of tritium.

(d) The reports described in this section are not required for tritium possessed pursuant to a general license provided in Part 31 of this chapter or for tritium contained in spent fuel.

(e) The reports described in paragraph (b) of this section are not required for (1) tritium produced or possessed within a production or utilization facility incidental to the operation of the facility, other than tritium intentionally produced by or recovered from a production or utilization facility for any subsequent use.

Footnotes:

1Values are given only for those materials normally used as gases. 2μCi/gm for solids.

NOTE 1: Many radioisotopes disintegrate into isotopes which are also radioactive. In expressing the concentrations in Schedule A, the activity stated is that of the parent isotope and takes into account the daughters.

NOTE 2: For purposes of § 30.14 where there is involved a combination of isotopes, the limit for the combination should be derived as follows:

Determine for each isotope in the product the ratio between the concentration present in the product and the exempt concentration established in Schedule A for the specific isotope when not in combination. The sum of such ratios may not exceed “1” (i.e., unity).
