§ 1605. Facilities, equipment and personnel—Article V
(a) Whenever a department, agency, or officer of a party state responsible for and having
control of facilities or equipment designed for or useful in radiation control, radiation
research, or any other phase of a radiological health program or programs determines
that such a facility or item of equipment is not being used to its full capacity by
such party state, or that temporarily it is not needed for current use by such state,
a department, agency, or officer may, upon request of an appropriate department, agency,
or officer of another party state, make such facility or item of equipment available
for use by such requesting department, agency, or officer. Unless otherwise required
by law, the availability and use resulting therefrom may be with or without charge,
at the discretion of the lending department, agency, or officer. Any personal property
made available pursuant to this paragraph may be removed to the requesting state,
but no such property shall be made available, except for a specified period and pursuant
to written agreement. Except when necessary to meet an emergency, no supplies or materials
intended to be consumed prior to return shall be made available pursuant to this paragraph.
(b) In recognition of the mutual benefits, in addition to those resulting from article
IV, accruing to the party states from the existence and flexible use of professional
or technical personnel having special skills or training related to radiation protection,
such personnel may be made available to a party state by appropriate departments,
agencies, and officers of other party states; provided that the borrower reimburses
such party state regularly employing the personnel in question for any cost of making
such personnel available, including a prorated share of the salary or other compensation
of the personnel involved.
(c) Nothing in this article shall be construed to limit or to modify in any way the provisions
of article IV of this compact. (Added 1967, No. 26, § 1, eff. March 14, 1967.)
