Sec. 108.211  Use of explosives detection systems.

    (a) If the Administrator so requires by an amendment to an aircraft 
operator's security program, each aircraft operator required to conduct 
screening under a security program shall use an explosives detection 
system approved by the Administrator to screen checked baggage on 
international flights.
    (b) No aircraft operator may use an explosives detection system that 
uses X-ray technology to inspect checked baggage unless a sign is posted 
in a conspicuous place where checked baggage is accepted, which notifies 
individuals that such items are being inspected by an explosives 
detection system and advises them to remove all X-ray, scientific, and 
high-speed film from checked baggage before inspection. This sign shall 
also advise individuals that they may request that an inspection be made 
of their photographic equipment and film packages

without exposure to an explosives detection system. If the explosives 
detection system exposes any checked baggage to more than one 
milliroentgen during the inspection the aircraft operator shall post a 
sign which advises individuals to remove film of all kinds from their 
articles before inspection. If requested by individuals, their 
photographic equipment and film packages shall be inspected without 
exposure to an explosives detection system.
