Office of Arms Control and

Nonproliferation; Proposed

Subsequent Arrangements

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Subsequent arrangements.

Pursuant to Section 131 of the Atomic

Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42

U.S.C. 2160), notice is hereby given of

a proposed ‘‘subsequent arrangement’’

under the Agreement for Cooperation

between the Government of the United

States of America and the Government

of the Federative Republic of Brazil

concerning Civil Uses of Atomic Energy.

The subsequent arrangement to be

carried out under the above-mentioned

agreement involves approval of the

following retransfer: RTD/BR(EU)–10,

for the transfer from the Republic of

Germany to Brazil of 54,658 pieces of

zircaloy-4 cladding tubes, weighing

42,852 kilograms, to be incorporated

into uranium fuel assemblies, with an

enrichment level between 1.9% and

3.2% of uranium-235, for ultimate use

in the Angra-2 reactor.

In accordance with Section 131 of the

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended,

it has been determined that these

subsequent arrangements will not be

inimical to the common defense and

security.

This subsequent arrangement will

agreements involves approval of the

following retransfer: RTD/EU(CA)–13,

for the transfer of 127.8 kilograms of

unirradiated low enriched uranium fuel

fabrication scrap, containing 25.241

kilograms of the isotope uranium-235

(19.75% enrichment), from AECL in

Chalk River, Canada, to UKAEA in

Dounreay, United Kingdom, for the

purpose of recovering the uranium for

return to Canada in the form of uranium

metal pieces.

In accordance with Section 131 of the

[Docket No. ETEC–028]

Certification of the Radiological

Condition of Building 028 at the

Energy Technology Engineering

Center Near Chatsworth, California

AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy,

Office of Environmental Restoration.

ACTION: Notice of certification.

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy

(DOE) has completed radiological

surveys and taken remedial action to

decontaminate Building 028 located at

the Energy Technology Engineering

Center (ETEC) near Chatsworth,

California. This property previously was

found to contain radioactive materials

from activities carried out for the

Atomic Energy Commission and the

Energy Research and Development

Administration (AEC/ERDA),

predecessor agencies to DOE. Although

DOE owns the majority of the buildings

and equipment, a subsidiary of

Rockwell International, Rocketdyne,

owned the land. Rocketdyne has

recently been sold to Boeing North

American Incorporated.

Williams, Program Manager, Office of

Northwestern Area Programs, Office of

Environmental Restoration (EM–44),

U.S. Department of Energy, Washington,

D.C. 20585.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE has

implemented environmental restoration

projects at ETEC (Ventura County, Map

Book 3, Page 7, Miscellaneous Records)

as part of DOE’s Environmental

Restoration Program. One objective of

the program is to identify and clean up

or otherwise control facilities where

residual radioactive contamination

remains from activities carried out

under contract to AEC/ERDA during the

early years of the Nation’s atomic energy

program.

ETEC is comprised of a number of

facilities and structures located within

Administrative Area IV of the Santa

Susana Field Laboratory. The work

performed for DOE at ETEC consisted

primarily of testing of equipment,

materials, and components for nuclear

and energy related programs. These

nuclear energy research and

development programs, conducted by

Atomics International under contract to

AEC/ERDA, began in 1946. Several

buildings and land areas became

radiologically contaminated as a result

of facility operations and site activities.

Building 028 is one ETEC area that has

been designated for cleanup under the

DOE Environmental Restoration

Program. Other areas undergoing

decontamination will be released as
