DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


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 the Atomic 
Energy Act of 1954, as amended. The Department is providing notice of a 
proposed subsequent arrangement under paragraph 2 of Article 6 of the 
Agreement for Cooperation between the American Institute in Taiwan and 
the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United 
States Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy, done at Washington 
on December 20, 2013 (123 Agreement).

DATES: This subsequent arrangement will take effect no sooner than 
November 19, 2014.

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: 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#8ec5effae7eba0ddfafcefe0e9e7fdcee0e0fdefa0eae1eba0e9e1f8"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="3d765c495458136e494f5c535a544e7d53534e5c13595258135a524b">[email protected]</span></a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This subsequent arrangement concerns the 
alteration in form or content of irradiated fuel elements which are 
subject to obligations to the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) 
pursuant to the 123 Agreement, and which are to take place in a hot 
cell laboratory at the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research (INER) in 
Lungtan, Taiwan. Approximately thirty-six irradiated light water 
reactor fuel rods are expected to be transferred to the INER hot cell 
laboratory for post irradiation examination and failure root cause 
analysis and 80 cans of spent fuel pool sludge from the Taiwan Research 
Reactor will be transferred to the hot cell laboratory for 
stabilization. These activities, in support of nuclear power-related 
research activities, are described in the ``Irradiated Fuels and 
Material Research Program from 2014 to 2020,'' dated October 2013 and 
in ``Summary of the Irradiated Fuels and Materials Research Program 
from 2014 to 2020.'' This subsequent arrangement is effective until 
December 31, 2020.
    In accordance with section 131a. 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 of the United 
States of America.

    Dated: October 9, 2014.

    For the Department of Energy.
Anne M. Harrington,
Deputy Administrator, Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation.
