10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 40 establishes requirements for licenses
for the receipt, possession, use, and transfer of radioactive source
and byproduct material. NRC Form 244 is used to report receipt and
transfer of depleted uranium under general license, as required by 10
CFR part 40. NRC Form 484 is used to report certain groundwater
monitoring data required by 10 CFR part 40 for uranium recovery
licensees. The application, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements
are necessary to permit the NRC to make a determination on whether the
possession, use, and transfer of source and byproduct material is in
conformance with the Commission's regulations for protection of public
health and safety.
