The bill clarifies the authority of the Department of Energy to dispose of certain foreign-origin radiological materials at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.

  • 50 U.S.C. 2569(c)(1)

    ``(N)(i) The collection, storage, and safe disposal of the materials described in clause (ii) as waste materials generated by atomic energy defense activities for the purpose of disposal of such materials at WIPP (as defined in section 2(19) of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Land Withdrawal Act (Public Law 102-579; 106 Stat. 4777)). ``(ii) The materials described in this clause are proliferation-attractive fissile materials or radiological materials that-- ``(I) contain transuranic elements of foreign-origin; and ``(II) but for subclause (I), are similar to proliferation-attractive fissile materials or radiological materials covered by this section.''.

    This change permits the disposal of certain foreign-origin fissile or radiological materials at WIPP, enhancing the scope of materials eligible for disposal.
