      The Honorable Gordon J. Humphrey
      United States Senate

      Dear Senator Humphrey:

           Subject: Comments on the new Nuclear Fuel Cycle
                     Activities Account Included in House
                     Bill 7145 (GAO/RCED-83-79)

           On November 18, 1982, you requested our views on aspects of
      the new nuclear fuel cycle activities appropriation account
      included in House Bill H.R. 7145, 97th Congress. The bill makes
      appropriations for energy and water development for fiscal year
      1983. The bill would create a new appropriation account for cur-
      rent and potential revenue-producing Department of Energy (DOE)
      civilian nuclear fuel cycle activities. These activities include
      uranium supply and enrichment, nuclear waste management, repro-
      cessing, and demonstration projects. The bill requires that DOE
      use the revenues it receives from each activity to offset its
      costs for that activity, to deposit any such revenues received
      in excess of such costs in the nuclear fuel cycle activities
      account, and to use these excess revenues to offset any other
      obligations against the account.

      OBJECTIVE, SCOPE, AND METHODOLOGY

           You requested our views on four statements listed in your
      letter:

           --The account would have two revenue streams in
             fiscal year 1983. The first would be gross
             receipts raised from DOE's sale of uranium
             enrichment services and the second would be
             revenues from the nuclear waste disposal fee
             proposed in pending nuclear waste legislation.
           --rnhere would be outlays from the account to pay
              for three types of activities--enrichment,
              fuel cycle demonstration activities (Clinch
              River now and possibly commercial reprocessing
              later), and nuclear waste disposai activities


                                                            (305195)
