DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Office of Nonproliferation Policy; 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 147,929 kg 
of U.S.-origin natural uranium hexafluoride, 100,000 kg of which is 
uranium, from Cameco Corporation, Port Hope, Ontario, Canada, to 
Eurodif SA, Velizy France. The material, which is now located at Cameco 
Corp., Port Hope, Ontario, will be transferred to Eurodif for 
enrichment. Upon completion of the enrichment, the material will be 
used at Electricite de France, Delegation aux Combustibles as reactor 
fuel. Cameco Corp. originally obtained the uranium hexafluoride under 
Export License Number XSOU-8744.
    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 August 
26, 2004.

    Dated: August 5, 2004.

    For the Department of Energy.
Kurt Siemon,
Acting Director, Office of Nonproliferation Policy.
