b. For individual radionuclides whose identities are known, but which are not listed in Table VII, the exempt material activity concentration and exempt consignment activity values contained in Table VIII may be used. Otherwise, the licensee shall obtain prior department approval of the exempt material activity concentration and exempt consignment activity values for radionuclides not listed in Table VII, before shipping the material.
