    (1) Whenever the irradiator is operated using an automatic product 
conveyor system; and
    (2) Whenever the product is moved into or out of the radiation room 
when the irradiator is operated in a batch mode.
    (b) At a panoramic irradiator at which static irradiations (no 
movement of the product) are occurring, a person who has received the 
training on how to respond to alarms described in Sec. 36.51(g) must be 
onsite.
    (c) At an underwater irradiator, an irradiator operator must be 
present at the facility whenever the product is moved into or out of the

underwater irradiator need not be qualified as irradiator operators; 
however, they must have received the training described in Sec. 36.51 
(f) and (g). Static irradiations may be performed without a person 
present at the facility.
