Summary of Information Collection

    Under the U.S.-International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Additional 
Protocol, the United States is required to declare a wide range of 
public and private nuclear-related activities to the IAEA and 
potentially provide access to IAEA inspectors for verification 
purposes. The U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol permits the United States 
unilaterally to declare exclusions from inspection requirements for 
activities with direct national security significance.

[[Page 11188]]

    The DFARS clause at 252.204-7010, as prescribed at DFARS 204.470-3, 
is included in contracts for research and development or major defense 
acquisition programs involving fissionable materials (e.g., uranium, 
plutonium, neptunium, thorium, americium); other radiological source 
materials; or technologies directly related to nuclear power 
production, including nuclear or radiological waste materials.
    The clause requires a contractor to provide written notification to 
the applicable DoD program manager and a copy of the notification to 
the contracting officer if the contractor is required to report its 
activities under the U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol. Upon such 
notification, DoD will determine if access may be granted to IAEA 
inspectors, or if a national security exclusion should be applied.
