The U.S. Additional Protocol requires
the United States to declare to the IAEA a number of commercial
nuclear and nuclear-related items, materials, and activities that
may be used for peaceful nuclear purposes, but also would be
necessary elements for a nuclear weapons program. The declaration
submitted under the Additional Protocol will provide the IAEA with
information about additional aspects of the U.S. commercial nuclear
fuel cycle, including: mining and milling of nuclear materials;
buildings on sites of facilities selected by the IAEA from the U.S.
Eligible Facilities List; nuclear-related equipment manufacturing,
assembly, or construction; import and export of nuclear and
nuclear-related items and materials; research and development not
involving nuclear material; and other nuclear material activities
not currently subject to the U.S.-IAEA Safeguards Agreement. The
Protocol also expands IAEA access to locations where these
activities occur.
