SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This proposed subsequent arrangement concerns the retransfer of 31,800.11 kilograms depleted uranium hexafluoride and 3,000,272.54 grams low enriched uranium hexafluoride containing 97,514.76 grams U-235, both U.S.-obligated, from the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research in Taoyuan City, Taiwan, to Urenco UK in Capenhurst, Chester, United Kingdom, for stabilization and storage.
