Subject:
Application for License to Export Equipment for Use in a Reactor to Malaysia
Dear Mr. Peterson:
General Atomics has a commitment to ship some items to Malaysia for use in the TRIGA Mark II Reactor at Tun Ismail Atomic Research Centre.
The items consist of.a specimen pick-up assembly and two types of specimen containers.
The pick-up assembly is a grapple. device used to place and retrieve specimen containers in and from irradiation locations in the core of the reactor.
The first type of specimen container, known as "TRIGA tubes," is the kind which is placed in the core and retrieved by the pick-up assembly or grapple device.
The second type of specimen container, known as " Rabbit tubes," are for use in a pneumatic system for delivery and retrieval of samples.
We are not certain whether or not an NRC export license is required to ship these items to Malaysia.
Referring to 10 CFR 110.8 (a)(9), the items obviously do not constitute
" nuclear reactors and parts and components for nuclear reactors..."
On the other hand, they are "... components specially designed or prepared for use in a nuclear reactor..." as stated in 10 CFR 110.8 (a) (9).
Enclosed is a completed NRC Form 7 for this transaction.
If you would, please, review this application and determine whether an NRC export license is required.
If an NRC license is required,'please process our request as soon as possible since~e have a shipment scheduled for October 15, w
1989.
If an NRC license is not required, please advise us as soon as possible so that we may proceed to export under
~
a Department of Commerce general license.
