Dear Mr. Helfrich:

Enclosed please find an application from Westinghouse Electric Corporation for a license to export detectors to the People's Republic of China for use in their research reacter. This is the first license request for the export of components to the PRC.

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 tne 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.

For our information in replying to inquiries, we would also appreciate your views as to the likelihood of issuing future component licenses to the PRC.

Sincerely, b

Y Y A/
