Dear Mr. Thorne:

Enclosed are two (2) applications for an export license (XSNM02534), recently received by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, for the export of high enriched uranium for use as fuel in the HFR Grenoble research reactor in France Before taking action on this request, we would ap)reciate your views, in accordance witn established )rocedures and from tie overall perspective of the Executive Branch, as to whetier the proposed export meet the applicable criteria in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 as ammded by the Nuclear Non-proliferation Act of 1978.

Sincerely, p
