When it comes to transportation regs, all bets are off! I don't think DOT regs recognize exempt quantities, except, as you indicated,if the concentration is less than 70 Bq/g.
 
This points out an inconsistency between DOT regs and NRC/Agreement State regs. DOT is in its own world, and I try to stay out of it whenever possible!
