Honorable Richard G. Lugar
Chairman
Committee on Foreign Relations
United States Senate
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Mr. Chairman:
In response to your request, the Congressional Budget Office has prepared
the attached analysis of the costs associated with ratifying the Protocol
Additional to the Agreement Between the United States of America and the
International Atomic Energy Agency Regarding Safeguards in the United
States (Treaty Document 107-7). CBO estimates that one-time costs to the
U.S. government for implementing the Additional Protocol would total
between $20 million and $30 million, and recurring costs would total
between $10 million and $15 million a year. Those costs would come from
appropriated funds. CBO does not anticipate that any direct spending
would result from ratification of the protocol.
If you would like further information about this analysis, we would be
pleased to provide it. The CBO staff contact is Raymond J. Hall, who can
be reached at 226-2840.
Sincerely,
Douglas Holtz-Eakin
Attachment

Ranking Member
