                                      Washington, January 11, 2001.
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: In accordance with the provisions of 
section 1512 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 1999 (Public Law 105-261), I hereby certify that 
the export to the People's Republic of China of a beam 
centerline (linear accelerator):
          (1) Is not detrimental to the United States space 
        launch industry; and
          (2) The material and equipment, including any 
        indirect technical benefit that could be derived from 
        such export, will not measurably improve the missile or 
        space launch capabilities of the People's Republic of 
        China.
            Sincerely,
                                                William J. Clinton.
