In addition, this division prescribes requirements for the issuance of specific licenses to persons who introduce radioactive material into a product or material owned by or in the possession of the licensee or another and rules governing holders of such licenses. Further, this division describes procedures and prescribes requirements for the issuance of certificates of registration (governing radiation safety information about a product) to manufacturers or initial transferors of sealed source or devices containing sealed sources, which are to be used by persons specifically licensed under this division or equivalent regulations of an Agreement State or the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission.(6)
