DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Notice of Availability: Application 

Requirements for the American 

Assured Fuel Supply 

AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy. 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: Through this notice, the 

Department of Energy announces the 

availability of application requirements 

to access the American Assured Fuel 

Supply. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rich 

Goorevich, Senior Policy Advisor, 

Office of Nonproliferation and 

International Security, National Nuclear 

Security Administration, U.S. 

Department of Energy, 1000

DC 20585, Tel: 202–586–0589, Fax: 

202–586–1348. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In August 2011, the Department of 

Energy (DOE) published a Notice of 

Availability announcing the Assured 

Fuel Supply (AFS), a backup supply of 

low-enriched uranium (LEU) available 

to domestic and foreign end-users in the 

event of a supply disruption in the 

nuclear fuel market. 76 FR 51357 (Aug. 

18, 2011). The LEU that recipients will 

purchase from the AFS will be in the 

form of uranium hexafluoride at a 

specific assay (4.95% U–235). The U.S. 

Government will make no assurances 

about the material in the AFS beyond 

ensuring that Westinghouse, the private 

company storing the AFS LEU for DOE, 

can certify that the AFS LEU meets the 

ASTM International Standard 

Specification C996–04E1. 

As part of the AFS program 

implementation, DOE is publishing this 

notice to provide guidance on the 

information it will consider in 

evaluating the requests of potential 

applicants for access to the AFS. 

II. Policy and Process for Accessing 

AFS Material 

The DOE requests that persons or 

companies that seek to purchase low 

enriched uranium (LEU) from the U.S. 

Department of Energy’s American 

Assured Fuel Supply (AFS) provide 

information sufficient to evaluate the 

request to the Office of Nonproliferation 

and International Security, National 

Nuclear Security Administration 1000 

Independence Ave. SW., Washington, 

DC 20585, Tel: 202–586–0589, Fax: 

202–586–1348. 

DOE will require the following 

information from the requester to 

evaluate a request: 

1. Provide name and contact 

information for end-user of desired LEU. 

2. If end-user is not in the United 

States, provide country and name of 

end-user. 

3. Is there any other logistical 

information that DOE should be made 

aware of? 

4. Is the foreign recipient requesting 

LEU from the AFS experiencing a fuel 

supply disruption for which LEU cannot 

be obtained through normal market 

conditions? If yes, please provide facts 

that demonstrate that LEU is 

unavailable in the timeframe that it is 

needed. 

5.a. For all U.S. end-users, is a 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission license 

authorizing possession and use in 

place? 

5.b. If end-user is not in the United 

States, describe steps to be taken to 

obtain the necessary Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission export license. 

5.c. If end-user is not in the United 

States, does the country have any 

outstanding issues with the 

International Atomic Energy Agency 

over their comprehensive safeguards 

agreement? If yes, please describe the 

nature of these issues. 

6. What is the desired quantity of LEU 

and when is anticipated fueling into 

reactor? Please note that the LEU will be 

in the form of uranium hexafluoride at 

a specific assay (4.95% U–235). The 

U.S. Government does not assume 

responsibility or make any warranty, 

express or implied beyond assuring that 

Westinghouse, the company storing AFS 

LEU, can certify that the AFS LEU meets 

the ASTM International Standard 

Specification C996–04E1. 

7. When does requester want to take 

title of LEU from DOE? 

8. Please provide evidence that 

requester can make all necessary and 

required arrangements to accept custody 

and take possession of the LEU from the 

place of storage, (Westinghouse’s 

Columbia, South Carolina site) once title 

is transferred. 

DOE reserves the right to request 

additional information or clarification of 

required information as deemed 

necessary to process the request.

Proposed Subsequent Arrangement 

AGENCY: Office of Nonproliferation and 

International Security, Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Proposed subsequent 

arrangement. 

SUMMARY: This notice 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 X paragraph 

3 of the Agreement for Cooperation 

Between the Government of the United 

States of America and the Government 

of the Republic of Korea Concerning 

Civil Uses of Atomic Energy and the 

Agreement for Cooperation in the 

Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy 

Between the United States of America 

and the European Atomic Energy 

Community. 

DATES: This subsequent arrangement 

will take effect no sooner than 

December 17, 2013.

Sean Oehlbert, Office of 

Nonproliferation and International 

Security, National Nuclear Security 

Administration, Department of Energy. 

Telephone: 202–586–3806 or email: 

Sean.Oehlbert@nnsa.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

subsequent arrangement concerns the 

retransfer of 1,860 g of U.S.-origin 

atomized low-enriched uranium-7wt. % 

molybdenum powder, containing 

365.638 g in the isotope uranium-235, 

19.658 percent enrichment, from the 

Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute 

(KAERI) in Daejeon, South Korea, to the 

Belgian Nuclear Research Centre 

(SCK•CEN) in Mol, Belgium. The 

material, which is located at and was 

prepared by KAERI, will be used for the 

irradiation test of full-size fuel plates in 

the BR–2 research reactor by SCK•CEN 

in cooperation with the Global Threat 

Reduction Initiative program. KAERI 

originally obtained the material from the 

U.S. Department of Energy/National 

Nuclear Security Administration Y–12 

National Security Complex pursuant to 

export license XSNM3613. 

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.

[Case No. CR–003] 

Decision and Order Granting a Waiver 

to Hussmann From the Department of 

Energy Commercial Refrigerator, 

Freezer and Refrigerator-Freezer Test 

Procedure 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Decision and order. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Energy (DOE) gives notice of the 

decision and order (Case No. CR–003) 

that grants to Hussmann Corporation 

(Hussmann) a waiver from the U.S. 

Department of Energy (DOE) test 

procedure for determining the energy 

consumption of its commercial freezers 

for the basic models set forth in its 

petition for waiver (petition). Hussmann 

claims in its petition that the specified 

basic models cannot be tested in 

accordance with the DOE test procedure 

for commercial refrigeration equipment 

because the equipment cannot operate 

at the specified integrated average 

product temperature of 0 °F ± 2 °F. 

Under today’s decision and order, 

Hussmann shall be required to test and 

rate the commercial freezers specified in 

the petition at their lowest integrated 

average temperature of 8 ± 2 °F, which 

DOE confirmed is the lowest 

temperature at which those models can 

operate and which is consistent with the 

lowest application product temperature 

provision in the DOE test procedure. 

DATES: This Decision and Order is 

effective December 2, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE 

issues notice of this Decision and Order 

in accordance with Title 10 of the Code 

of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 

431.401(f)(4). In this Decision and 

Order, DOE grants Hussmann a waiver 

for the commercial refrigerators 

specified in its petition submitted on 

January 12, 2012. Hussmann must test 

and rate this equipment at the lowest 

integrated average temperature at which 

the commercial refrigerators can 

operate, which is consistent with the 

lowest application product temperature 

provision in the DOE test procedure at 

10 CFR 431.64(b)(3)(A). 

Today’s decision requires Hussmann 

to make representations concerning the 

energy efficiency of this equipment 

consistent with the provisions and 

restrictions of the alternate test 

procedure in the Decision and Order 

below, and the representations must 

fairly disclose the test results. (42 U.S.C. 

6314(d)) The same standard applies to 

distributors, retailers, and private 

labelers when making representations of 

the energy efficiency of this equipment. 

Issued in Washington, DC, on November 

25, 2013.
