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

DATES: This subsequent arrangement will take effect no sooner than

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Katie Strangis, Office of 
Nonproliferation and International Security, National Nuclear Security 
Administration, Department of Energy. Telephone: 202-586-8623 or email:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This subsequent arrangement is an amendment 
to the existing subsequent arrangement that was published in the 
Federal Register on June 13, 2012 (77 FR 35366) and went into effect in 
June 2012. The subsequent arrangement currently authorizes the 
retransfer of 6,672,212 g of U.S.-origin enriched uranium fuel 
fabrications scrap, containing 233,977 g of the isotope U-235 (less 
than five percent enrichment), from Nuclear Fuel Industries, Ltd. in 
Minato-Ku, Tokyo, Japan, to Ulba Metallurgical Plant in Ust-Kamengorsk, 
Kazakhstan. The purpose of the amendment is to increase the cumulative 
total authorized for retransfer to 6,734,183 g of U.S.-origin enriched 
uranium fuel fabrications scrap, containing 238,582 g of the isotope U-
235 (less than five percent enrichment). Subject to the existing 
subsequent arrangement, Nuclear Fuel Industries, Ltd. has already 
shipped 2,910,869 g of the specified material to Ulba Metallurgical 
Plant. The remaining 3,823,314 g of enriched uranium, which is 
currently located at Nuclear Fuels Industries, Ltd. in Japan, will be 
transferred to Ulba Metallurgical Plant for the purpose of recovering 
uranium from fuel fabrication scrap for return to Japan where it will 
be fabricated into

fuel pellets to be used by Kansai Electric Power Co., in Osaka, Japan. 
The material was originally obtained by Nuclear Fuel Industries, Ltd. 
from nuclear fuel manufacturers in the United States pursuant to 
several Nuclear Regulatory Commission licenses.
    In accordance with section 131a.of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, 
as amended, it has been determined that this subsequent arrangement 
concerning the retransfer of nuclear material of United States origin 
will not be inimical to the common defense and security of the United 
States of America.
