Dear. Sir:
Medtronic, Inc. is presently licensed under license no. SNM-1156 to possess 238 up to 20 gms of Pu scaled sources with Pu as the principle isotope. No source is to exceed 1 gm of Pu238, Medtronic, Inc. submitted on October 23, 1970, application for import license and amendment to SNM 1156. This letter requested " licenses to import and 238 possess a maximum of ten scaled sources" of Pu as thermoelectric generators (GIPSIE model) built by Alcatel of Paris, France.
