URANIUM PROSPECTING, MINING, AND PRODUCTION 47 This film surveys the work of USAEC's Division of Licensing and Regulation, Compliance, and Radiation Protection Standards in licens- ing and regulating the uses of nuclear materials so that the many bene- fits of atomic energy and man-made radiation can be achieved in safety. It details how the USAEC effectively controls radiation from radioactive materials and radiation-producing sources during their handling, shipment, and many uses in power, research, industry, ag- riculture and medicine. The close control of radioactive materials is shown, from the time they leave the mines to be processed until they are once again returned to the earth or the sea as waste materials.
