height onto a flat, essentially unyielding, horizontal surface. The drop test shall

follow the test procedures specified in applicable portions of 49 CFR 178.603,

and shall be conducted using containers as specified by 49 CFR 178.601, loaded

with non-radioactive material that simulates the planned loading for the

container

3) The outer container shall remain leak-tight, as defined in ANSI N14.5, after a

hydrostatic proof-test to 1.5 times the Design Pressure. The test shall be

conducted using containers as specified by 49 CFR 178.601.

2. Testing During Use

Both the inner and outer containers shall be tested for leak-tightness, as defined in

ANSI N14.5, at their time of closure.

6.2.4 Other Criteria

1. Both the inner and outer containers shall have unique permanent identification

markings, such as by etching or engraving.

2. The exterior surface of the outer container shall not, at the time of assembly and

closure, exceed the removable surface contamination values specified by 10 CFR

835, Appendix D. The interior surface shall be similarly contamination-free at least

until the inner container is inserted. The removable surface contamination level on

the exterior surface of the inner container, at the time of its packaging into the outer

container, shall be as low as reasonably achievable, and shall not exceed 2000

dpm/100 cm .

Contained Materials

6.3.1 Container Fill Gas

1. The atmosphere within any of the containers (including the convenience container, if

used) shall not react adversely with the containers or contained materials.

2. The atmospheres within the inner and outer containers shall not preclude leak-

testing of the containers.
