(b)Procedures.— The Secretary shall prescribe procedures for monitoring and enforcing regulations prescribed under this section.

(c)Nonapplication.— This section does not apply to material the Secretary decides does not pose a significant hazard to health or safety when transported because of its low order of radioactivity.
