Proposed Subsequent Arrangement

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

ACTION: Proposed subsequent arrangement.

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

SUMMARY: This document is being issued under the authority of section 
131a. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. The Department is 
providing notice of a proposed subsequent arrangement under Article 6 
paragraph 2 of the Agreement for Cooperation Between the Government of 
the United States of America and the Government of the Republic of 
Indonesia Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy.

DATES: This subsequent arrangement will take effect no sooner than 
March 8, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Sean Oehlbert, Office of 
Nonproliferation and Arms Control, National Nuclear Security 
Administration, Department of Energy. Telephone: 202-586-3806 or email: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This subsequent arrangement concerns the 
alteration in form or content of 1.3 kg of U.S.-origin highly enriched 
uranium (HEU), 1.21 kg of which is in the isotope of U-235 (93 percent 
enrichment) and currently located at PT Industri Nuklir (PT INUKI) in 
Serpong, Indonesia, through down-blending to reduce its enrichment to 
less than 20 percent U-235. The purpose of the down-blending of the HEU 
is to achieve permanent threat reduction by eliminating HEU from 
Indonesia. PT INUKI will down-blend the HEU contained in 514 bottles of 
irradiated HEU targets in liquid form and 14 containers of un-
irradiated liquid HEU used in the plating process for medical isotope 
production, on-site at the Pusat Penelitian Ilmu Pengetahuan dan 
Teknologi facility in Serpong. The quantity of uranium will increase 
from 1.3 kg to 6.72 kg while the U-235 enrichment will decrease from 93 
percent to 18 percent. The down-blend operation is scheduled to last 
for approximately three months.
    In accordance with section 131a. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, 
as amended, it has been determined that this subsequent arrangement 
concerning the alteration in form or content of nuclear material of 
United States origin will not be inimical to the common defense and 
security of the United States of America.

    Dated: February 11, 2016.

    For the Department of Energy.

Deputy Administrator, Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation.
