Office of Arms Control and Nonproliferation Policy; Proposed 
Subsequent Arrangement

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Subsequent Arrangement.

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

SUMMARY: The Department is providing a notice of a proposed 
``subsequent arrangement'' under the Agreement for Cooperation in the 
Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy Between the United States of America 
and the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) and the Agreement 
for Cooperation Between the Government of the United States of America 
and the Government of Canada Concerning the Civil Uses of Atomic 
Energy. 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 subsequent arrangement concerns approval of RTD/CA(EU)-1 
involving the return of 25,000 grams of fuel fabrication scrap, 
containing 23,280 grams of the isotope U-235 (93.15 percent enrichment) 
from UKAEA in Dounreay, United Kingdom, to, AECL in Chalk River, 
Canada. The material was originally transferred to the United Kingdom 
for the recovery of HEU under RTD/EU(CA)-15, which was implemented on 
October 28, 1997. The recovery process has now been completed and is 
ready for retransfer to Canada for use as target material for the 
production of Molybdenum 99.
    In accordance with section 131 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended, it has been 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: April 2, 1999.

    For the Department of Energy.
Ed Fei,
Deputy Director, International Policy and Analysis Division, Office of 
Arms Control and Nonproliferation.
