CALIBRATION. To adjust and/or determine either:

(i)

or tertiary) or to a series of conventionally true values; or

(ii)

The strength of a radiation source relative to a standard (e.g., primary, secondary, or

tertiary) or conventionally true value.

[10 CFR 835.2]

CANDIDATES FOR TRANSFER. Land and facilities that include: a) contaminated facilities

for which DOE has responsibility or owns; (b) contaminated portions of facilities, if structurally

66.

CATEGORY A REACTOR FACILITIES. Those production, test, research reactors

designated by DOE based on power level (e.g., design thermal power rating of 20 megawatts

steady state and higher) potential fission product inventory, and experimental capability. [DOE
