DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Office of Nonproliferation Policy; Proposed Subsequent
Arrangement
AGENCY: Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of subsequent arrangement.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice has been issued under the authority of Section 131
of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2160). The
Department is providing notice of a proposed ``subsequent arrangement''
under the Agreement for Cooperation Concerning Civil Uses of Atomic
Energy between the United States and Canada and Agreement for
Cooperation in the Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy between the United
States and the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM).
This subsequent arrangement concerns the retransfer of 180,038 kg
of U.S.-origin natural uranium hexafluoride, 121,706 kg of which is
uranium, from the Cameco Corporation, Ontario, Canada to Urenco
Capenhurst, England. The material, which is now located at Cameco
Corp., Port Hope, Ontario, will be transferred to Urenco for
enrichment. Upon completion of the enrichment, the material will be
retransferred to Commonwealth Edison Company, Downers Grove, Illinois
for use as fuel. The uranium hexafluoride was originally obtained by
the Cameco Corp. from Power Resources, Inc. pursuant to export license
number XSOU8744.
In accordance with Section 131 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as
amended, we have determined that this subsequent arrangement is not
inimical to the common defense and security.
This subsequent arrangement will take effect no sooner than fifteen
days after the date of publication of this notice.
For the National Nuclear Security Administration.
Trisha Dedik,
Director, Office of Nonproliferation Policy.
