NRC Licensing of Am-241



Can anyone tell me why Americium-241 is not listed in 10CFR30.71, Schedule B?

I know that it is mentioned in 30.15 at 0.05 microcuries for sources in
ionizing radiation measureing instruments.  

Since it's not listed, does this mean that "ANY" amount of Am-241 must be
licensed by the NRC?
