Description

Under existing law (Atomic Energy Act [AEA] of 1954, as amended; P.L. 95-242; 42 U.S.C. Œ_2153 et seq.) all significant U.S. nuclear cooperation with other countries requires a peaceful nuclear cooperation agreement. Significant nuclear cooperation includes the transfer of U.S.-origin special nuclear material subject to licensing for commercial, medical, and industrial purposes. Such agreements, which are äóìcongressional-executive agreementsäó requiring congressional approval, do not guarantee that cooperation will take place or that nuclear material will be transferred, but rather set the terms of reference and authorize cooperation. Contents of this report: What Is a äóìSection 123äó Agreement?; Congressional Review; Export Licensing; Subsequent Arrangements; Termination of Cooperation; Legislation in the 112th Congress. This is a print on demand report.
