CAMD Access Procedure:

Please complete at least two weeks prior to your arrival at CAMD.

Please enter your personal information in the spaces below. After that, complete the Radiation Safety Test. This form can also be picked up and filled out in the CAMD front office, rm. 107 A minimum passing score is 80% (24 out of 30) After completing the test, you will be notified by e-mail or telephone for further instructions. You can prepare for this test by first reading the Radiation Safety Training Manual. All fields are required to be filled in.

Note: All new applicants are required to provide a refundable deposit for the following:

Gate Key: $5.00 (if applicable) Access Card: $10.00

Note: A late fee of $10.00 will be assessed for all Radiation Badges that are lost or returned late. Badges are routinely changed on a quarterly basis; July 1, Oct. 1, Jan. 1, and April 1.)
