DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Office of Arms Control and Nonproliferation; Proposed Subsequent 
Arrangement

    Pursuant to Section 131 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended (42 U.S.C. 2160), notice is hereby given of a proposed 
``subsequent arrangement'' under the Additional Agreement for 
Cooperation between the Government of the United States of America and 
the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) Concerning Peaceful Uses 
of Atomic Energy, as amended, the Agreement for Cooperation between the 
Government of the United States of America and the Government of 
Switzerland Concerning Civil Uses of Atomic Energy, as amended.
    The subsequent arrangement would give approval, which must be 
obtained under the above-mentioned agreements, for the following 
transfer of special nuclear materials of United States origin, or of 
special nuclear materials produced through the use of materials of 
United States origin, as follows: Switzerland to the United Kingdom for 
the purpose of reprocessing 140 irradiated fuel assemblies containing 
approximately 57,000 kilograms of uranium and containing 460 kilograms 
of the isotope uranium-235 (enriched to approximately 0.81 percent) and 
590 kilograms of plutonium from the Gosgen nuclear power station. This 
subsequent arrangement is designated as RTD/EU(SD)-80.
    The United States has received assurance from the Government of 
Switzerland that the recovered uranium and plutonium will be stored in 
the United Kingdom, and will not be transferred from the United 
Kingdom, nor put to any use, without the prior consent of the United 
States Government.
    In accordance with Section 131 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended, it has been determined that this subsequent arrangement will 
not be 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 and after fifteen 
days of continuous session of the Congress, beginning the day after the 
date on which the reports required by section [[Page 13138]] 131(b)(1) 
of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2160), are 
submitted to the Committee on International Relations of the House of 
Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate. 
The two time periods referred to above shall run concurrently.

    Issued in Washington, DC on March 6, 1995.

Acting Director, Office of Nonproliferation Policy, Office of Arms 
Control and Nonproliferation.
