5.4.2 NOTICE REGARDING THE RETURN OF APPARATUS PRODUCTS

US Federal Regulations
In order to comply with US federal regulations and to protect the health and safety of employees, it is
imperative that all customers read this notice and adhere to the requirements regarding the return of
apparatus products. The US Department of Transportation, the Department of Health and Human
Services, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission have strict regulations on the shipment of hazardous
materials (49 CFR Part 173) including etiologic agents (49 CFR Part 173 and 42 CFR Part 72) and
radioactive materials (CFR 49 Part 173 and 10 CFR Part 20).
German Law
To comply with German law (i.e. §71 StrlSchV, §17 GefStoffV and §19 ChemG) and to avoid exposure to
hazardous materials during handling or repair, completion of this form is required before equipment
leaves your laboratory. When equipment is returned for repair, evaluation, credit or exchange, the
customer becomes the shipper and must ensure that the item is free of contamination whether
chemical, biological or radioactive. Procedures for decontamination are described above.
Materials received that have not been properly decontaminated or units which do not have hazard
labels (such as 'caution radioactive materials') may be decontaminated at the customer's expense
(approximately $350) and may result in delay or refusal of repair. In addition, in the case of radioactive
contamination, Apogee may be required to notify a licensing authority that in turn may be required to
notify the customer's licensing authority.
Please carefully follow decontamination instructions and fill out the Decontamination Declaration that
follows. Place the Decontamination Declaration inside the top flap of the box where it can be
immediately noticed by the receiver. Any change to this procedure may result in service delay.
