Hi Jack. You wrote:
< Is there a Directive in the European Community related to radioactive materials and do individual countries have more stringent regulations? > You refer to the Euratom Directives, of which there are a few, and which are regularly 'updated'. Many have 'a plurality' (meaning a hundred or so) of pages of Isotopes etc. And seem very specific. Germany seems to have tighter local regs, having something called Betrieb Algerbnis or something like that which I understand relates to local 'Permission to Operate'. In the UK we have the Ionizing Radiation Regs, which I think cover everything down to 10keV (low level X-Rays) with maximum dose rates of 5uSv/h at 500mm etc. That may help a bit, I thought some vague knowledge may be better than none at all. Good luck, Chris Dupres Surrey, UK.
