USEC WORKING ON $34M SUBCONTRACTrnTO ORNL FOR AMERICAN CENTRIFUGE

摘要

In a new effort to continue to fund the American Centrifuge project, USEC is looking to serve as a subcontractor to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, though the Department of Energy has yet to give its approval. The proposed subcontract, which also has to be approved by a bankruptcy court as USEC is undergoing Chapter 11 proceedings, would initially be worth $34 million and run through the end of this year. The subcontract would also have two six-month $42 million option periods that would take it through Fiscal Year 2015 for a total potential value of $118 million.
