Radiation Safety Program Enforcement Policy

Abstract

The regulatory climate surrounding the use of radioactive materials has become increasingly harsh and unforgiving. Severe penalties and fines have been imposed recently on hospitals that have failed to use their authorized materials safely or not in compliance with their license. This policy is designed to encourage the participation and cooperation of the users of radioactive materials to ensure their safe use of radioactive materials consistent with the rules and regulations of the Department of Natural Resources of the State of Georgia.
