  9. Tested Packaging is Required • Package that has been tested available from the APS Stock Room • Packages must be tested in configuration used • From 6 feet all packages withstand • 1 drop on top, bottom, long side, short side, • 1 drop onto intersection of 3 corners • Compressive load test required

  12. Packaging Requirements • Cushioning and absorbent must: • Not react with material • Be capable of absorbing entire contents • Receptacles packed in inner packaging, then placed into outer • Outer package must be sealed, and may not be opened during transportation.

  13. Safety • For all packages received: • Competent person must inspect packages for: • signs of leakage • significant damage to packaging • Must be performed before the package if opened • Use this inspection to verify that all materials have been disclosed to the CAT/beamline group, compare against ESAF • If package is acceptable release to user.

  17. Leaking or Suspect Packages • Package and Contents Breached • Seek guidance from EMO-Waste Management on disposal • Treat as hazardous waste • Do not attempt to recover materials • May be attempted after appropriate safety review has been completed • Only allowed if appropriately characterized and adequate controls in place • CAT management has authorized work to proceed • Written procedures for recovery may be needed.

  18. Leaking or Suspect Packages • Actions required • CAT management must consult with APS Chemical Hygiene Officer to: • determine investigation requirements • determine reporting requirements • prepare appropriate reports • document the situation and actions taken
