(2) Permits anyone to work as an authorized user, ophthalmic physicist, authorized nuclear pharmacist, or authorized medical physicist under the license, except:
(a) For an authorized user, an individual who meets the requirements in WAC 246-240-154, 246-240-163, 246-240-210, 246-240-213, 246-240-216, 246-240-278, or 246-240-399;
(b) For an authorized nuclear pharmacist, an individual who meets the requirements in WAC 246-240-075 and 246-240-081;
(c) For an authorized medical physicist, an individual who meets the requirements in WAC 246-240-072 and 246-240-081; or
(d) An individual who is identified as an authorized user, an authorized nuclear pharmacist, authorized medical physicist, or ophthalmic physicist:
(i) On an agreement state or NRC license or other equivalent license recognized by the department that authorizes the use of radioactive material in medical use or in the practice of nuclear pharmacy; or
(ii) On a permit issued by NRC or an agreement state specific license of broad scope which is licensed to authorize the use of radioactive material in medical use or in the practice of nuclear pharmacy;
(iii) On a permit issued by NRC master material licensee that is licensed to authorize the use of radioactive material in medical use or in the practice of nuclear pharmacy; or
(iv) By a commercial nuclear pharmacy that has been licensed to authorize nuclear pharmacists.
(3) Changes radiation safety officers, except as provided in WAC 246-240-051;
