These regulations mandate that specific topics are covered each year, including information on controls, safety devices, and accelerator operations.  The pertinent sections of the regulations as excerpted from 1200-2-9-.17(4) Controls and Safety Devices and 1200-2-9-.17(5) Operation are available available here. If you have questions about annual radiation safety training, please contact Curtis Kwasniewski.  | Safety Training | top of page
