DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Office of Arms Control and Nonproliferation; Proposed Subsequent
Arrangement
AGENCY: Department of Energy.
ACTION: 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 40,168.3kg
of U.S.-origin natural uranium, 27,153.8kg of which is in the form of
UF6, from the Cameco Corporation, Ontario, Canada to Urenco
Almelo, Netherlands. The material, which is now located at Cameco
Corp., Port Hope, Ontario, will be transferred to Urenco for toll
enrichment. Upon completion of the toll enrichment, the material will
be transferred to the Northern States Power, Minneapolis, MN for use as
fuel. The uranium hexafluoride was originally obtained by the Cameco
Corp. from IMC--Agrico Bannockburn, Il pursuant to export license
number XSOU8714.
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 Department of Energy.
Trisha Dedik,
Director, International Policy and Analysis for Arms Control and
Nonproliferation Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation.
