AFMAN 24-204(I)/TM 38-250/NAVSUP PUB 505/MCO P4030.19H/ DLAI 4145.332911 NOVEMBER 2001-Label nitric acid solution of radioactive material "RADIOACTIVE" and "CORROSIVE."-Each package requiring a "RADIOACTIVE" label must have two of these labels affixed to opposite sides of the package.Enter the following information in the blank spaces by legible printing (manual or mechanical), using a durable weatherresistant means of marking:-"Contents." The name of the radionuclides as taken from the listing of radionuclides in table A11.1. Symbols thatconform to established radiation protection terminology are authorized, (i.e., 99Mo, 60Co, etc). For mixtures ofradionuclides, list the most restrictive radionuclides, on the basis of radiotoxicity, as space on the label allows. If anoverpack is used to consolidate individual packages, this entry may state "MIXED" unless each inside packagecontains the same radionuclides.-"Activity." Express units in appropriate international units of Becquerals (Bq) or Terabecquerals (Tbq). Thecustomary units, i.e., curies (Ci), mullicuries (mCi), or microcuries (uCi) may be included in parenthesis followingthe international units. Abbreviations are authorized. For a fissile material, the weight in grams or kilograms of thefissile radioisotope also may be inserted. If an overpack is used to consolidate individual packages, this entry mustbe determined by adding together the number of curies of the radioactive materials packages contained in theoverpack.-"Transport Index." See attachment 1. If an overpack is used to consolidate individual packages, determine this entryby adding together the transport indexes of the radioactive materials packages contained in the overpack. The transportindex of the overpack must not exceed 3.0 for passenger-carrying aircraft shipments, or 10.0 for cargo only aircraftshipments (see attachment 22).A15.4.5. Class 8.-Batteries prepared and certified according to A12.5 must have a "Package Orientation" labels indicating the uprightposition (top) of the container.-Label Chemical or First Aid Kits prepared in accordance with A12.7 with the primary hazard label and any subsidiaryrisk labels applicable to each individual hazard within the kit.A15.4.6. Class 9.-Equipment or articles of Class 9 do not require a label unless packaged, crated, or otherwise enclosed to prevent readyidentification.-Certify items containing both limited quantity radioactive and magnetic characteristics to the radioactive material.Although limited quantity radioactive material is exempt from labeling, a magnetic material label must be applied to theshipping container.
