DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Office of International Regimes and 

Agreements; Proposed Subsequent 

Arrangement 

AGENCY: Department of Energy. 

ACTION: Notice of Proposed Subsequent 

Arrangement. 

SUMMARY: 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 Department is 

providing notice of a proposed 

‘‘subsequent arrangement’’ under the 

Agreement for Cooperation in the 

Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy 

between the United States 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 Norway for Peaceful 

Uses of Nuclear Energy. 

This subsequent arrangement 

concerns a request for a three-year 

extension of the current programmatic 

approval for retransfer of U.S.-obligated 

irradiated fuel rods between Studsvik 

Nuclear AB, Sweden and the Institutt 

for Energiteknikk, Norway. The rods are 

being transferred for irradiation service, 

tests and examination, and will be 

returned to Sweden for further test and 

disposal. The total shipping amounts 

will be the same as allowed under the 

current approval—a maximum of 30,000 

grams uranium, 400 grams U–235 and 

400 grams plutonium in all shipments 

combined, with a maximum of 100 

grams of plutonium per shipment.
