W. John A. Griffin, Director 1 Division of Politico-Military Security Affairs U. S. Department of Energy Washington, D.C. 20585 1
Dear Mr. Griffin:
This refers to your Septernber 28 letter regarding Westinghouse's request to transfer proprietary commercial nuclear power plant technology to the PeoplesRepublicofChina(PRC).
As discussed with Mrs. Johnnie Raymond of your office, and as mentioned in our October 1 letter to you in connection with a similar equest, the NRC staff believes this request raises several issues which will require more extensive consideration than has been addressed in your analysis. Specifically, we believe this proposed transfer should address those factors [ contained in 10 CFR Part 810.8(b)] to be considered by the Secretary of Energy prior to approval. In eddition, we believe the analysis should include a statement of the Executive Branch's policy regarding U.S. nuclear exports to the PRC, and i the Executive Branch % position regarding the application of safeguards ;
(IAEA or otherwise) with respect to such exports. i Upon receipt of the revised DOE analysis, the NRC staff will complete its review and submit the case to the Commission for consideration.
