DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Office of Arms Control and Nonproliferation; Proposed Subsequent 
Arrangement

AGENCY: Office of Arms Control and Nonproliferation, Department of 
Energy.

ACTION: Notice of subsequent arrangement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice is being 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 in the Peaceful Uses of Nuclear 
Energy between the United States and the European Atomic Energy 
Community (EURATOM) and the Agreement for Cooperation Concerning Civil 
Uses of Atomic Energy between the United States and Norway.
    This subsequent arrangement concerns the retransfer of 400g of 
U.S.-origin uranium and 100g of U.S.-origin plutonium, in the form of 
sintered mixed-oxide fuel pellets in sealed tubes, from the Euratom 
Supply Agency to the Government of Norway for irradiation and analysis. 
The sintered pellets contain 1.2g of the isotope U-235. The material is 
currently located at the Institut Transurane, Karlsruke, Germany, and 
will be shipped to the Institut for Energiteknikk (IFE), Halden, 
Norway. IFE Halden is a research institute within the fields of nuclear 
technology, man-machine communication, and energy technology.
    In accordance with Section 131 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended, we have determined that this subsequent arrangement will not 
be inimical to the common defense and security.
    This subsequent arrangement will take effect no sooner than August 
21, 2000.

    For the Department of Energy.
Trisha Dedik,
 Director, International Policy and Analysis for Arms Control and 
Nonproliferation, Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation.
