(2) the licensee establishes procedures for opening and closing packages and containers in which radioactive material is transported to provide safety and to assure that, prior to the delivery to a carrier for transport, each package or container is properly closed for transport; and

(3) the licensee assures that any special instructions needed to safely open the package or container are sent to or have been made available to the consignee prior to delivery of a package or container to a carrier for transport.
