this reason, the Executive Branch has recommended that the NRC suspend 
the general license authority in 10 CFR 110.21 through 110.24 for any 
exports of radioactive material and deuterium to CGN, CGN subsidiaries, 
and related entities.
    Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 161b., 161i., 183, and 186 of the 
AEA, and 10 CFR 110.20(b) and (f) and 10 CFR 110.50(a)(1) and (2), NRC 
general license authority to export radioactive material and deuterium 
to CGN, CGN subsidiaries, or related entities under Sections 54, 64, 82

effective immediately. This suspension will remain in effect until 
further notice.
