If, for a specific case, the 3-day period would impose an undue hardship on the out-of-state licensee, the licensee may, upon written application to the department, obtain permission to proceed sooner. The department may waive the requirement for filing additional written notifications during the remainder of the year following the receipt of the initial notification from a person engaging in activities under the general license granted under this paragraph. DHS 157.14 NoteNote: The form may be obtained by writing the department at: Department of Health Services, Radiation Protection Section, P.O. Box 2659, Madison WI 53701-2659; or by downloading from the department website at: http://dhs.wisconsin.gov/radiation/Index.htm. DHS 157.14(2)(a)3.3.
