For hyperbolic systems of balance laws governing relaxation processes, in one space dimension, with source incurring nonnegative entropy production and satisfying a Kawashima-type condition, it is shown that when the initial data have small total variation on (-∞, ∞) and decay rapidly to zero, as |x| → ∞, then the Cauchy problem possesses a unique admissible BV solution, in the large, with total variation decaying to zero, as t → ∞.
