Attn: Mr. P. Gordon-Ellis P. O. Box 125 Black Horse Lane Monmouth Junction, New Je n ay 08852

Dear Mr. Gordon-Ellis:

In accordance with your telephone request, we are returning your export license application, dated January 21, 1987 for the export of monazite sand which contains 0.04% thorium and 0.004% uranium.

As you were advised on February 4, 1987, the material which Rhone-Poulenc, Inc.

requested for export approval contains less than 0.05 percent uranium and/or thorium, and, consequently, does not meet the NRC definition of source material, and does not require a specific license.

You may wish to contact the Department of Connerce to see if that agency's regulations cover your proposed export.

If you have any further (;uestions, please contact Betty Wright on (301) 492-7984.

Sincerely, 11 ~ % b Marvin R. Peterson, Assistant Director Export / Import anct International Safeguards Office of International Programs
