4, DEC 0 01979 Mr. G.F. Helfrich, Director Office of Program Implementation Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs U.S. Department of State Washington, D.C. 20520
Dear Mr. Helfrich:
Enclosed please find an application from Isotope Products Laboratories for a license to export 10 microcuries of Curium-244 contained in a sealed x-ray source to Zaire for energy calibration purposes as part of a UNDP Project. Please note in your records that in May 1979, NRC issued a license for the same material for use in a similar program in Kenya (XB001018).
Before taking action on this license application, we would appreciate your views, in accordance with established procedures and from the overall perspective of the Executive Branch, as to whether the issuance of the requested license would be inimical to the interests of the United States, including the common defense and security, and whether the proposed export meets the applicable criteria in the Atomic Energy Act as amended by the Nuclear Nonproliferation Act of 1978.
Sincerely, J k.
O S.l r.
Marvin R. Peterson, Acting Assistant Director Export / Import and International Safeguards Office of International Programs
