Use units containing radio-source detection and injury devices should be progressively subject to real-time positioning controls, as required by the municipal environmental sector.

Article 9

The transfer of radioactive-source detection and injury devices to the workplace within this city shall take place within three days prior to the use of radiation safety permits, referrals to the area of the land, the environmental sector of the district, the district of the district, the environmental gates of the land, the relocation and relocation of the land to the same area, the relocation of the area, and the relocation of the land to the same area, the district environmental sector should be provided with the process. Within 5 days of the end of use, the use units containing radio-source detection and injury devices shall be required to process write-offs in the area of the original submission, the environmental sector of the district. Of these, cross-regional and district use units should also be informed of the trans-border environmental sectors.

The transfer of radioactive-source detection devices across provinces, self-governing zones and municipalities should be made available to the urban environmental sector in accordance with the relevant national provisions. The relevant information should be communicated in writing to the relevant regional, district environmental sectors within 24 hours after the municipal environmental sector is processed.

Regions, environmental sectors should strengthen monitoring inspections of the diversion of radioactive sources.

Article 10

Indoor and field operations, the operating units should delineate a certain range of control areas in the operation area, as required, and establish a guard line and clear warning signs.

In the course of the operation, the inspection units and the inspection units should be delegated to strengthen the security defence of the site for the visit and the entry of the non-relentials into the site. Each radio-source facility should ensure that more than two persons are operational and more than one are responsible for alert and control.

A radio-source search and injury facility would need to be stored off-site and should be stored in relatively closed places. Reservations should be administered by a specialized person and take security protection measures such as piracy, radiation levies, prohibiting the storage of radio-source detection and injury devices in residential buildings, integrated commercial buildings and other public places.

Regions, the environmental sector should enhance monitoring of the field of operations containing radioactive sources.

Article 11
