Answers to Frequently Asked Questions About
General License ECDs
What is a General License?
Unfortunately, there is much confusion over the term "General License" because no "license" or
document is issued to the recipient of the General License (GL) device. The NRC grants permission
to purchase certain low hazard radioactive products without the need to go through an expensive and
time-consuming licensure process. The recipient of the device is granted "general license" (more
accurately, general permission) to acquire, receive, possess, use, or transfer the device (all described
on the first page of 10 CFR 31.5). It's a great benefit in the U.S. but the recipient of the GL
device must comply with the regulations noted on the first page of the document entitled Customer
ECD Regulatory Information provided by Agilent at the time of the sale. Agilent has U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission materials licenses to manufacture and distribute these General License devices,
but these licenses do not cover our customers.
Why do I have to fill out and return a General License Registration Form before I can get lily
ECD?
The U.S. NRC requires manufacturers of Generally Licensed devices to provide regulatory
information to potential customers prior to shipment so the customer can be made aware of their
regulatory requirements under the General License provisions outlined in the NRC regulation 10 CFR
31.5 before they commit themselves to purchase generally licensed devices. The completed General
License Registration Form (GLRF) proves for our records that the intended End User (the person
with regulatory responsibility for the ECD) has been made aware of these regulations and agrees to
comply with them. Once we have the completed form returned, we can ship the device. This process
serves to inform the customer of their requirements under the regulations governing Generally
Licensed devices as well as to prove to the NRC that Agilent Technologies, Inc. is in compliance
with our regulatory and licensure requirements.
Does the customer buy an ECD under Agilent's General License?
No. As stated above, Agilent has a material license authorizing the company to distribute General
Licensed devices to those customers covered under 10 CFR 331.5 (found at the NRC website:
http://www.nre.gov/reading-rm/doe-collections/efr/part03l/partO3l-0005.html). The customer is granted
General License to acquire receive, possess, use or transfer the device in accordance with provisions
of 10 CFR 31.5.
Can a customer with a Specific License manage General License ECDs under their Specific
License?
Yes. However, the customer will typically have to manage their General License ECDs in accordance
with the NRC or Agreement State agency's General License regulations and their Specific License
ECDs in accordance with the terms of their Specific License. We say typically because the issuing
agency may permit the handling of the GL device under the customer's material license. It's
recommended that the customer contact their issuing agency for the agency's interpretation.
Should a customer purchase a General License ECD and include it undertheir Specific License?
This is not recommended. By nature of the General License provisions, customers are not required to
be "licensed" by the NRC or Agreement State agency in order to purchase General License devices.
Again, if the customer has a Specific License, they will typically have to maintain the General
License separately (under the NRC or Agreement State General License regulations) from the Specific

License requirements.
What if the customer has identified a General License model number in the scope of their Specific
License?
A customer should not list General License model numbers in a Specific License as the ECD would
have to be handled under the terms of both the customer's Specific License and the NRC or
Agreement State General License regulations. The customer is strongly encouraged to contact the
Specific License issuing authority for direction in points of conflict between the terms of the Specific
License and General License regulations (e.g., restriction of movement on General License devices vs.
Specific Licenses allowing for movement within the scope of the license). It is recommended that the
customer consider amending their Specific License to eliminate the General License model from their
Specific License.
Why can't Agilent Technologies, Inc. accept a customer's specific (or Materials) license?
Customers frequently manage General License ECDs under Specific (or Materials) Licenses and will
substitute a copy of their license in lieu of completing and returning a copy of the General License
Registration Form. We cannot accept these as a substitute for the GLR Form for the following
reasons:
1) As stated above, by nature of the General License provisions, customers are not required to
be "licensed" by the NRC or Agreement State agency in order to purchase a General License
device.
2) The General Licensee is required to comply with NRC or Agreement State regulations
whereas the Specific Licensee is required to comply with the statements and requirements posted
on their license. The differences between regulation and license requirements may differ
significantly depending on the situation of the Specific Licensee.
3) The NRC requires distributors of General License devices to provide them and Agreement
States with the actual location (by address and End User) of the device. Specific licensees can
move their ECDs anywhere within the scope of their license, which, in say a university with a
multi facility campus, could be any of dozens of buildings.
4) The General License regulations require the assigning of an individual (identified as the End
User) who will have direct control over the movement of each ECD. The specific licensee
identifies a designated RSO who is expected to meet rigorous training requirements and bear
responsibilities that are far beyond the scope of the General License End User.
Can we accept a General License Registration Form in lieu of a customer's Specific License when
they order a Specific License ECD?
No. This is so because:
1) The NRC mandates that we sell our ECDs only to "licensed" customers, and we cannot
verify such without a copy of the customer's license.
2) In order to verify that the customer is licensed, we must examine license expiration dates,
maximum amounts of Ni-63 allowed under the license, and that the ECD is being shipped to a
location within the scope of the customer's license. We simply can't verify these from the
information provided in the General License Registration Form.
What if the customer claims exemption from General License Registration?
Refer to the ECD procedure GCECD068 maintained in Order Processing, Field Repair, and ECD Lab
notebooks.

Basically:
1) Assure the customer that we are not requiring them to file for a license and that the General
License Registration Form is only a tracking device for our customer.
2) Inform the customer that we are required to provide the following 'information to the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission and Agreement States for the transfer of the device to their location:
- End User's name*, title, and telephone number
- Exact street location that the device will be used
* The person identified by the General Licensee as having responsibility for having knowledge
of the appropriate regulations and requirements and having the authority for taking required
actions to comply with appropriate regulations and requirements as defined in NRC Regulation
10 CFR Section 31.5 (c) (12)
