Overview
• Introduction
• Overview of transport of radioactive material
• The international regulatory framework
• IAEA SSR-6 Transport Regulations
3. International Atomic Energy Agency
• In industry - non-destructive testing and measurement
• In our homes and work places, smoke detectors and energy
saving lights
• In the environment - control of disease carrying insects, removal of
pests in food and other goods
• Mobile phones – computers and mobile phones contain electronic
components made of tantalum metal (extracted from a radioactive ore)
• Civil nuclear power generation programmes

4. International Atomic Energy Agency
In health care
Diagnosis and treatment of cancer, heart disease and organ failure
80% of surgical gloves and nearly 50% of disposable medical devices
are sterilized using radioactive materials
Each Year
Over 4 billion diagnostic medical radiation procedures
50 million nuclear medicine procedures
5.5 million patients treated with radiotherapy
In over 50 countries
Overview of transport of radioactive material (1)
5. International Atomic Energy Agency
• ~20 million shipments of radioactive material occur each year, much less
than 5% by the nuclear industry
• Commercial shipping (for larger sources, bulk material Uranium ores, etc)
• Transport by air (short half-life material – Radiopharmaceuticals)
• Almost, if not all, by road
• Small percentage by rail

Overview of regulatory framework – SSR-6
• Prescriptive requirements - revised on biennial basis
• Supported by Advisory Material – aids consistent interpretation
• Global, multi-modal but not mandatory
• All 168 IAEA Member States can participate
• Transposed into UN Model Regulations
• Text does not look like UN or modal texts
• No guidance for UN or modal provisions, so legal texts need to address
everything
• Modes take Class 7 provisions from UN, not from SSR 6
• Few UN national delegations include Class 7 experts
Regulations – IAEA SSR-6 (2)
10. International Atomic Energy Agency
• UNITED NATIONS SUB-COMMITTEE OF EXPERTS on the
transport of dangerous goods
• A body established by ECOSOC (UN Economic and Social Council)
in 1957
Regulations – UN Model Regulations (2)
11. International Atomic Energy Agency
• Was originally the UN Committee of Experts on the Transport of
Dangerous Goods
• Now a sub-committee of UN Committee of Experts on the Transport
of Dangerous Goods and on the Globally Harmonized System of
Classification and Labelling of Chemicals
• Originally consisted of ‘experts’ drawn from countries with
demonstrable expertise and interest in the transport of dangerous
goods
Regulations – UN Model Regulations (2)
12. International Atomic Energy Agency
• Draws up non-mandatory ‘Recommendations on the Transport of
Dangerous Goods’ for all modes of transport throughout the world
• Written in the form of ‘Model Regulations’ for international and
national legislation
• Known as the ‘Orange Book’
Regulations – UN Model Regulations (2)
13. International Atomic Energy Agency
• Makes decisions by simple majority voting - not by consensus
• Currently 27 voting countries, increasing geographical
representation but European dominated
• Non-voting countries and inter-governmental organisations can
attend as ‘observers’
• International trade associations in UN consultative status may also
attend
• Currently working on the 20th - revised edition (19th) taking effect
from 1 January 2016
• Works on 2 year revision cycle
• Meets in Palais des Nations in Geneva each June and December
• Ad hoc Working Groups meet (inter-session) if required

Regulations – International framework (2)
15. International Atomic Energy Agency
Objective of SSR-6 (para 104)
… is to establish requirements that must be satisfied to ensure safety and
to protect persons, property and the environment from the effects of
radiation in the transport of radioactive material. This protection is
achieved by requiring:
• Containment of the radioactive contents;
• Control of external radiation levels;
• Prevention of criticality;
• Prevention of damage caused by heat.
No routeing or physical protection controls are specified - these may be
implemented for reasons other than radiological safety
Regulations – SSR-6 (2)
16. International Atomic Energy Agency
Regulatory approach (SSR-6 para 106)
A graded approach is applied in specifying the performance
standards which are characterized in terms of three general severity
levels:
(a) Routine conditions of transport (incident free);
(b) Normal conditions of transport (minor mishaps);
(c) Accident conditions of transport.
Regulations – SSR-6 (2)
17. International Atomic Energy Agency
‘Transport’ (SSR-6 para 106)
… Transport comprises all operations and conditions associated
with, and involved in, the movement of radioactive material; these
include the design, manufacture, maintenance and repair of
packaging, and the preparation, consigning, loading, carriage
including in-transit storage, unloading and receipt at the final
destination of loads of radioactive material and packages.
Radioactive material (SSR-6 para 236)
…..any material containing radionuclides where both the activity
concentration (Bq/g) and the total activity in the consignment (Bq)
exceed the values specified in paras 402 - 407
Regulations – SSR-6 Definitions (2)
18. International Atomic Energy Agency
Packaging (SSR-6 para 232)
Packaging shall mean one or more receptacles and any other
components or materials necessary for the receptacles to perform the
containment and other safety functions
Package (SSR-6 para 231)
….. shall mean the packaging with its radioactive contents as presented
for transport
Regulations – SSR-6 Definitions (2)
19. International Atomic Energy Agency
Consignor shall mean any person, organization or government which
prepares a consignment for transport (SSR-6 para 212)
Carrier shall mean any person, organization or government undertaking the
carriage of radioactive material by any means of transport. The term includes
both carriers for hire or reward (known as common or contract carriers in
some countries) and carriers on own account (known as private carriers in
some countries (SSR-6 para 206)
Consignee shall mean any person, organization or government which is
entitled to take delivery of a consignment (SSR-6 para 210)
Regulations – SSR-6 Definitions (2)
20. International Atomic Energy Agency
Unilateral approval shall mean an approval of a design which is required
to be given by the competent authority of the country of origin of the
design only (SSR-6 para 205)
Multilateral approval shall mean approval by the relevant competent
authority of the country of origin of the design or shipment, as applicable,
and also, where the consignment is to be transported through or into any
other country, approval by the competent authority of that country
(SSR-6 para 204)
Regulations – SSR-6 Definitions (2)
21. International Atomic Energy Agency
• Radiation protection shall be optimised using ALARA, social and
economic factors being taken into account
• Emergency response provisions, established at national and/or
international levels shall be observed
• Management systems shall be established to standards acceptable to
the competent authority
• Training – the provision of appropriate radiation protection training for
workers and general awareness/familiarisation training for others and
the need for training records
