Proposed Subsequent Arrangement

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: 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 Between the 
Government of the United States of America and the Swiss Federal 
Council Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy.
    This subsequent arrangement concerns the retransfer of 54 fresh MTR 
fuel elements containing 16,195 g uranium, 15,018 g of which is U-235, 
from the Paul Scherrer Institut in Switzerland to the Euratom Supply 
Agency. The fuel elements will be sent to CERCA, France for 
refabrication and then utilization in the HFR at the Center Commun ole 
Reclierche, Netherlands. The expected date of shipment is September 
2001. The material originally was exported to Switzerland pursuant to 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission Export License number XSNM01840.
    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 fifteen 
days after the date of publication of this notice.

    Dated: January 29, 2001.

    For the Department of Energy.

Director, International Policy and Analysis for Arms Control and
