Is it acceptable to leave your gauge with an unlicensed service provider?

Leaving a nuclear gauge with an unlicensed service provider is not acceptable due to strict regulatory requirements governing the use and maintenance of radioactive materials. Such regulations are in place to ensure safety and security, as unlicensed individuals or entities may not have the necessary training or oversight to handle hazardous materials properly.

Involvement with licensed service providers ensures adherence to safety protocols and compliance with legal obligations, which helps prevent unauthorized access to radioactive substances and reduces the risk of accidents or misuse. It is critical to ensure that anyone working with or servicing nuclear gauges is appropriately qualified and compliant with all regulatory standards to maintain safety standards and to protect both the public and the environment.
