AGENCY: National Nuclear Security Administration, Department of Energy 
(DOE).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: DOE/NNSA is providing notice that ``e810,'' an electronic 
database for processing applications, reporting, and requests for 
determination for nuclear technology exports, is now available for use. 
The Web site is: e810.energy.gov. This is necessary so that public 
stakeholders are aware this Web site is now available for their use.

DATES: Effective: May 18, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Katie Strangis, Policy Advisor, 
Office of Nonproliferation and Arms Control (NPAC), National Nuclear

Background

    Section 57b.(2) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, is 
implemented through the DOE/NNSA regulations under Title 10 of the Code 
of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 810 (Part 810) governing exports of 
unclassified nuclear technology and assistance. Applicants seeking 
specific authorizations to transfer or provide any such technology or 
assistance must make an application to DOE, and those who are 
transferring or providing such technology or assistance must provide 
regular reports to DOE. In response to public comment, DOE/NNSA is 
pursuing a number of efforts to improve the Part 810 authorization 
process collectively known as a Process Improvement Plan (PIP) to make 
the Part 810 authorization process more transparent, orderly, and 
efficient. One of the main components of the PIP was to develop an 
electronic application and reporting database (which DOE has called 
``e810''). e810 was designed to ease the application and reporting 
burden on industry, streamline the review process for specific 
authorization applications, and provide greater transparency into the 
authorization process and timelines. The e810 database is now available 
for use. The Web site is: e810.energy.gov. Prospective users may 
register for an account at that site. Use of the e810 site for Part 810 
communications is strictly optional; the email and paper communication 
options listed at 10 CFR 810.4 remain available. However, we encourage 
its use as continued upgrades to the e810 database will further enhance 
and streamline the Part 810 authorization process. Early use will allow 
users to take full advantage of those features as they come on line.
