Annex A
Part A
1. Deuterium and heavy water:
Deuterium, heavy water (deuterium oxide) and any other deuterium compound in which the ratio of deuterium to hydrogen atoms exceeds 1:5000 for use in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 of Part B below, in quantities exceeding 200 kg of deuterium atoms in any period of 12 months.
2. Nuclear grade graphite:
Graphite having a purity level better than 5 parts per million boron
3
equivalent and with a density greater than 1.50 g/cm for use in a nuclear
reactor as defined in paragraph 1 of Part B below, in quantities exceeding
30 metric tons in any period of 12 months.
Part B
1. Complete nuclear reactors:
Nuclear reactors capable of operation so as to maintain a controlled self-sustaining fission chain reaction, excluding zero energy reactors, the latter being defined as reactors with a designed maximum rate of production of plutonium not exceeding 100 grams per year.
2. Nuclear reactor vessels:
Metal vessels, or major shop-fabricated parts therefor, especially designed or prepared to contain the core of a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above, as well as relevant nuclear reactor internals as defined in paragraph 8 below.
3. Nuclear reactor fuel charging and discharging machines:
Manipulative equipment especially designed or prepared for inserting or removing fuel in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above.
4. Nuclear reactor control rods and equipment:
Especially designed or prepared rods, support or suspension structures therefor, rod drive mechanisms or rod guide tubes to control the fission process in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above.
5. Nuclear reactor pressure tubes:
Tubes which are especially designed or prepared to contain fuel elements and the primary coolant in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above at an operating pressure in excess of 50 atmospheres.
6. Zirconium tubes:
Zirconium metal and alloys in the form of tubes or assemblies of tubes, and in quantities exceeding 500 kg in any period of 12 months, especially designed or prepared for use in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above, and in which the relation of hafnium to zirconium is less than 1:500 parts by weight.
7. Primary coolant pumps:
Pumps especially designed or prepared for circulating the primary coolant for a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above.
8. Nuclear reactor internals:
Nuclear reactor internals especially designed or prepared for use in a nuclear reactor as defined in paragraph 1 above, including supp
