Licenses for radioactive material are of two types: General and specific.
- (1) A general license is provided by regulation and grants authority to a person for certain activities involving radioactive material, and is effective without filing an application with the department or issuance of licensing documents to a particular person. However, registration or the filing of a certificate with the department may also be required by the particular general license. The general licensee is subject to all other applicable rules and any limitations of the general license.
- (2) The department issues a specific license to a named person, after review and approval of an application. The licensee is subject to all applicable rules, including chapter 246-235 WAC, Radioactive materials - Specific licenses, and any limitations specified in the specific license.
