Honorable Fortney H. Stark, Jr.

House Of Representatives







The Impact Of International Cooperation In

DOE's Magnetic Confinement Fusion Program




The U.S. fusion community participates in
many cooperative projects with other coun-
tries conducting research in fusion energy--
a new potential source of virtually unlimited
nuclear power Many of these projects in-
volve routine exchanges of information
Others are pursued under formal agree-
ments that allow U S and foreign scientists
to participate in research at U S and foreign
fusion facilities and may involve the contri-
bution of funds and/or equipment

O.S. fusion energy experts believe that inter-
rational cooperative efforts benefit all par-
ticipants and contribute to the advancement
6f U S fusion research objectives. Interna-
tional cooperative efforts, of themselves, do
not directly affect the U.S leadership posi-
tion in fusion energy Because fusion
energy is in such an early stage of develop-
ment, it is unlikely that any country could
obtain a commercial advantage from infor-
mation obtained from ongoing international
cooperative efforts.
