POLICY ISSUE January 13, 1999 (Notation Vote) stcy_99_oo9 FOR: The Comrr.issioners FROM: Janice Dunn Lee, Acting Director Office of International Program
SUBJECT:
PROPOSED LICENSE TO EXPORT A PROCESS CONTROL SYSTEM FOR THE ARROYlTO HEAVY WATER PRODUCTION PLANT IN ARGENTINA (XCOM1107)
PURPOSE:
To request Commission review of the proposed issuance of a license to HoneywellInc.,
j authorizing the export of a process control system for the Arroyito Hea ty Water Production Plant j in Argentina. The application is being referred to the Commission in accordance with 10 CFR
) 9110.40(b)(4).
DISCUSSION:
On December 23,1997, Honeywell Inc., applied for a license (Attachment 1) to export a Honeywell Total Plant Solution System to Argentina. The system will provide process controlin the production of heavy water at the Arroyito Heavy Water Production Plant.
In response to NRC's request for Executive Branch views, the Department of State, in a letter dated December 17,1998 (Attachment 2), recommended approval of the proposed export and advised that it is the judgment of the Executive Branch that the proposed export will not be inimical to the common defense and security of the United States and is consistent with the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act of 1978. \

- i The Executive Branch also advised that Argentina, as a party to the NPT, has committed itself to maintain lAEA safeguards on all of its peaceful nuclear activities and has pledged not to produce or l otherwise acquire any nuclear explosive devise, therefore satisfying criteria (1) and (2) of Section l
109b of the A.tomic Energy Act, as amended, for exports of nuclear components, substances or items. l The remaining criterion, agreement not to retransfer any U.S -supplied component, substance or item without prior U.S. consent, has been satisfied by the receipt of written assurances dated December 9, 1998, from the Government of Argentina.
Regarding international safeguard,, on March 4,1994, Argentina entered into a Quadripartite Agreement with Brazil, the Brazilian-Argentine Agency for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials (ABACC) and the IAEA and accepted IAEA safeguards on all source and special nuclear materialin their nuclear activities. The IAEA Board of Governors has concluded that the agreement is compatible with the NPT. Argentina ratified the NPT on February 10,1995. Argentina also ratified the Treaty for the Prohibition of NucPur Weapons in Latin America and the Caribbean (Tlatelolco Treaty) and waived into force Article 28 of the Treaty on January 18,1994.
Although Argentina accepts lAEA safeguards on all source and special nuclear material in its nuclear activities, we note that nuclear components are not subject to IAEA safeguards while in NPT countries under Article 111(2) cf the Treaty.
There are no foreign physical protection requirements applicable to this export.
CONCLUSION:
The staff concurs with the Executive Branch judgment that the proposed export will not be inimical to the common defense and security of the United States and concludes that all criteria required for the issuance of license XCOM1107 are met. The Office of the Executive Director for Operations concurs.
The Office of General Counsel has no legal objection.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Commission authorize the issuance of export license XCOM1107 to Honeywell Inc.

Application to export Honeywell TPS process automation system to Argentina
Dear Mr. Hauber:
Please find enclosed an application for an export license to cover Honeywell TPS process automation equipment to be experted to a heavy water facility in Argentina which is operated t
by Empresa Neuquina de Servicios de Ingeneria. I have also enclosed a check in the amount of $8,100 to cover the processing fee. ;
l This equipment is in addition to the equipment previously sent to Argentina as detailed in my l October 21,1997 letter to you. The equipment on this application does not provide any j higher level of control or technology than the equipment described in my earlier letter. This equipment will extend the automation system to additiorial parts of the plant.
l' I hope this application is in order and can be processed as quickly as possible. If any additional information or details are needed, please don't hesitate to phone me.
Sincerely, f
Charles R. Hough I

Dear Mr. Stoiber:
i I refer to the letter from your office dated January 9,1998 requesting the views of the Executive Branch as to whether issuance of an export license in accordance with the application hereinafter described meets the applicable criteria of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended by the Nuclear Non Proliferation Act of 1978:
NRC No. XCOM1107 - Application by Honeywell Inc. for authorization to export to Argentina a process control system, with a total value of $432,724, for th'e Arroyito Heavy Water Production Plant.
It is the judgment of the Executive Branch that the proposed export will not be inimical to the common defense and security of the United States, and is consistent with the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended by the Nuclear Non Proliferation Act of 1978.
As a party to the NPT, Argentina has committed itself to maintain IAEA safeguards on all of its peaceful nuclear activities and has pledged not to produce or otherwise acquire any ,
nuclear explosive device, therefore satisfying criteria (1) and (2) of Section 109b of the Atomic l Energy Act, as amended, for exports of nuclear components, substances and items.yThe remaining criterion, agreement not to retransfer any U.S. supplied component, substance or item without prior U.S. consent, has been satisfied by the receipt of written assurances De(ember 9, 1998 from the Government of Argentina.
On the basis of the foregoing, the Executive Branch recommends that the license be issued. -
