NUCLEAR

A. ENRICHMENT, ENRICHMENT R&D, STOCKPILES


1. Iran's long term plan includes certain agreed limitations on all uranium

enrichment and uranium enrichment-related activities including certain

limitations on specific research and development (R&D) activities for the first 8

years, to be followed by gradual evolution, at a reasonable pace, to the next

stage of its enrichment activities for exclusively peaceful purposes, as described

in Annex I. Iran will abide by its voluntary commitments, as expressed in its

own long-term enrichment and enrichment R&D plan to be submitted as part of

the initial declaration for the Additional Protocol to Iran’s Safeguards

Agreement.


2. Iran will begin phasing out its IR-1 centrifuges in 10 years. During this period,

Iran will keep its enrichment capacity at Natanz at up to a total installed

uranium enrichment capacity of 5060 IR-1 centrifuges. Excess centrifuges and

enrichment-related infrastructure at Natanz will be stored under IAEA

continuous monitoring, as specified in Annex I.


3. Iran will continue to conduct enrichment R&D in a manner that does not

accumulate enriched uranium. Iran's enrichment R&D with uranium for 10 years

will only include IR-4, IR-5, IR-6 and IR-8 centrifuges as laid out in Annex I, and

Iran will not engage in other isotope separation technologies for enrichment of

uranium as specified in Annex I. Iran will continue testing IR-6 and IR-8

centrifuges, and will commence testing of up to 30 IR-6 and IR-8 centrifuges

after eight and a half years, as detailed in Annex I.


4. As Iran will be phasing out its IR-1 centrifuges, it will not manufacture or

assemble other centrifuges, except as provided for in Annex I, and will replace

failed centrifuges with centrifuges of the same type. Iran will manufacture

advanced centrifuge machines only for the purposes specified in this JCPOA.

From the end of the eighth year, and as described in Annex I, Iran will start to

manufacture agreed numbers of IR-6 and IR-8 centrifuge machines without

rotors and will store all of the manufactured machines at Natanz, under IAEA

continuous monitoring until they are needed under Iran's long-term enrichment

and enrichment R&D plan.


5. Based on its long-term plan, for 15 years, Iran will carry out its uranium

enrichment-related activities, including safeguarded R&D exclusively in the

Natanz Enrichment facility, keep its level of uranium enrichment at up to 3.67%,

and, at Fordow, refrain from any uranium enrichment and uranium enrichment

R&D and from keeping any nuclear material.


6. Iran will convert the Fordow facility into a nuclear, physics and technology

centre. International collaboration including in the form of scientific joint

partnerships will be established in agreed areas of research. 1044 IR-1

centrifuges in six cascades will remain in one wing at Fordow. Two of these

cascades will spin without uranium and will be transitioned, including through

appropriate infrastructure modification, for stable isotope production. The other

four cascades with all associated infrastructure will remain idle. All other

centrifuges and enrichment-related infrastructure will be removed and stored

under IAEA continuous monitoring as specified in Annex I.


7. During the 15 year period, and as Iran gradually moves to meet international

qualification standards for nuclear fuel produced in Iran, it will keep its uranium

stockpile under 300 kg of up to 3.67% enriched uranium hexafluoride (UF6) or

the equivalent in other chemical forms. The excess quantities are to be sold

based on international prices and delivered to the international buyer in return

for natural uranium delivered to Iran, or are to be down-blended to natural

uranium level. Enriched uranium in fabricated fuel assemblies from Russia or

other sources for use in Iran's nuclear reactors will not be counted against the

above stated 300 kg UF6 stockpile, if the criteria set out in Annex I are met with

regard to other sources. The Joint Commission will support assistance to Iran,

including through IAEA technical cooperation as appropriate, in meeting

international qualification standards for nuclear fuel produced in Iran. All

remaining uranium oxide enriched to between 5% and 20% will be fabricated

into fuel for the Tehran Research Reactor (TRR). Any additional fuel needed for

the TRR will be made available to Iran at international market prices.


B. ARAK, HEAVY WATER, REPROCESSING


8. Iran will redesign and rebuild a modernised heavy water research reactor in

Arak, based on an agreed conceptual design, using fuel enriched up to 3.67 %, in

a form of an international partnership which will certify the final design. The

reactor will support peaceful nuclear research and radioisotope production for

medical and industrial purposes. The redesigned and rebuilt Arak reactor will

not produce weapons grade plutonium. Except for the first core load, all of the

activities for redesigning and manufacturing of the fuel assemblies for the

redesigned reactor will be carried out in Iran. All spent fuel from Arak will be

shipped out of Iran for the lifetime of the reactor. This international partnership

will include participating E3/EU+3 parties, Iran and such other countries as may

be mutually determined. Iran will take the leadership role as the owner and as

the project manager and the E3/EU+3 and Iran will, before Implementation Day,

conclude an official document which would define the responsibilities assumed

by the E3/EU+3 participants.


9. Iran plans to keep pace with the trend of international technological

advancement in relying on light water for its future power and research reactors

with enhanced international cooperation, including assurance of supply of

necessary fuel.


10. There will be no additional heavy water reactors or accumulation of heavy

water in Iran for 15 years. All excess heavy water will be made available for

export to the international market.


11. Iran intends to ship out all spent fuel for all future and present power and

research nuclear reactors, for further treatment or disposition as provided for in

relevant contracts to be duly concluded with the recipient party.


12. For 15 years Iran will not, and does not intend to thereafter, engage in any

spent fuel reprocessing or construction of a facility capable of spent fuel

reprocessing, or reprocessing R&D activities leading to a spent fuel

reprocessing capability, with the sole exception of separation activities aimed

exclusively at the production of medical and industrial radio-isotopes from

irradiated enriched uranium targets.


C. TRANSPARENCY AND CONFIDENCE BUILDING MEASURES


13. Consistent with the respective roles of the President and Majlis (Parliament),

Iran will provisionally apply the Additional Protocol to its Comprehensive

Safeguards Agreement in accordance with Article 17(b) of the Additional

Protocol, proceed with its ratification within the timeframe as detailed in Annex

V and fully implement the modified Code 3.1 of the Subsidiary Arrangements to

its Safeguards Agreement.


14. Iran will fully implement the "Roadmap for Clarification of Past and Present

Outstanding Issues" agreed with the IAEA, containing arrangements to address

past and present issues of concern relating to its nuclear programme as raised

in the annex to the IAEA report of 8 November 2011 (GOV/2011/65). Full

implementation of activities undertaken under the Roadmap by Iran will be

completed by 15 October 2015, and subsequently the Director General will

provide by 15 December 2015 the final assessment on the resolution of all past

and present outstanding issues to the Board of Governors, and the E3+3, in their

capacity as members of the Board of Governors, will submit a resolution to the

Board of Governors for taking necessary action, with a view to closing the issue,

without prejudice to the competence of the Board of Governors.


15. Iran will allow the IAEA to monitor the implementation of the voluntary

measures for their respective durations, as well as to implement transparency

measures, as set out in this JCPOA and its Annexes. These measures include: a

long-term IAEA presence in Iran; IAEA monitoring of uranium ore concentrate

produced by Iran from all uranium ore concentrate plants for 25 years;

containment and surveillance of centrifuge rotors and bellows for 20 years; use

of IAEA approved and certified modern technologies including on-line

enrichment measurement and electronic seals; and a reliable mechanism to

ensure speedy resolution of IAEA access concerns for 15 years, as defined in

Annex I.


16. Iran will not engage in activities, including at the R&D level, that could

contribute to the development of a nuclear explosive device, including uranium

or plutonium metallurgy activities, as specified in Annex I.


17. Iran will cooperate and act in accordance with the procurement channel in this

JCPOA, as detailed in Annex IV, endorsed by the UN Security Council resolution.

Annex I – Nuclear-related measures


A. GENERAL


1. The sequence of implementation of the commitments detailed in this Annex is specified

in Annex V to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Unless otherwise

specified, the durations of the commitments in this Annex are from Implementation Day.


B. ARAK HEAVY WATER RESEARCH REACTOR


2. Iran will modernise the Arak heavy water research reactor to support peaceful nuclear

research and radioisotopes production for medical and industrial purposes. Iran will

redesign and rebuild the reactor, based on the agreed conceptual design (as attached

to this Annex) to support its peaceful nuclear research and production needs and

purposes, including testing of fuel pins and assembly prototypes and structural

materials. The design will be such as to minimise the production of plutonium and not to

produce weapon-grade plutonium in normal operation. The power of the redesigned

reactor will not exceed 20 MWth. The E3/EU+3 and Iran share the understanding that

the parameters in the conceptual design are subject to possible and necessary

adjustments in developing the final design while fully preserving the above-mentioned

purposes and principles of modernisation.


3. Iran will not pursue construction at the existing unfinished reactor based on its original

design and will remove the existing calandria and retain it in Iran. The calandria will be

made inoperable by filling any openings in the calandria with concrete such that the

IAEA can verify that it will not be usable for a future nuclear application. In redesigning

and reconstructing of the modernized Arak heavy water research reactor, Iran will

maximise the use of existing infrastructure already installed at the current Arak research

reactor.


4. Iran will take the leadership role as the owner and as the project manager, and have

responsibility for overall implementation of the Arak modernisation project, with

E3/EU+3 participants assuming responsibilities regarding the modernisation of the Arak

reactor as described in this Annex. A Working Group composed of E3/EU+3

participants will be established to facilitate the redesigning and rebuilding of the

reactor. An international partnership composed of Iran and the Working Group would

implement the Arak modernisation project. The Working Group could be enlarged to

include other countries by consensus of the participants of the Working Group and

Iran. E3/EU+3 participants and Iran will conclude an official document expressing their

strong commitments to the Arak modernisation project in advance of Implementation

Day which would provide an assured path forward to modernise the reactor and would

define the responsibilities assumed by the E3/EU+3 participants, and subsequently

contracts would be concluded. The participants of the Working Group will provide

assistance needed by Iran for redesigning and rebuilding the reactor, consistent with

their respective national laws, in such a manner as to enable the safe and timely

construction and commissioning of the modernised reactor.


5. Iran and the Working Group will cooperate to develop the final design of the

modernised reactor and the design of the subsidiary laboratories to be carried out by

Iran, and review conformity with international safety standards, such that the reactor

can be licensed by the relevant Iranian regulatory authority for commissioning and

operation. The final design of the modernised reactor and the design of the subsidiary

laboratories will be submitted to the Joint Commission. The Joint Commission will aim

to complete its review and endorsement within three months after the submission of the

final design. If the Joint Commission does not complete its review and endorsement

within three months, Iran could raise the issue through the dispute resolution

mechanism envisaged by this JCPOA.


6. The IAEA will monitor the construction and report to the Working Group for

confirmation that the construction of the modernised reactor is consistent with the

approved final design.


7. As the project manager, Iran will take responsibility for the construction efforts.

E3/EU+3 parties will, consistent with their national laws, take appropriate administrative,

legal, technical, and regulatory measures to support co-operation.

E3/EU+3 parties will support the purchase by Iran, the transfer and supply of

necessary materials, equipment, instrumentation and control systems and

technologies required for the construction of the redesigned reactor, through the

mechanism established by this JCPOA, as well as through exploration of relevant

funding contributions.


8. E3/EU+3 parties will also support and facilitate the timely and safe construction of the

modernized Arak reactor and its subsidiary laboratories, upon request by Iran, through

IAEA technical cooperation if appropriate, including but not limited to technical and

financial assistance, supply of required materials and equipment, state-of-the-art

instrumentation and control systems and equipment and support for licensing and

authorization.


9. The redesigned reactor will use up to 3.67 percent enriched uranium in the form of UO2

with a mass of approximately 350 kg of UO2 in a full core load, with a fuel design to be

reviewed and approved by the Joint Commission. The international partnership with the

participation of Iran will fabricate the initial fuel core load for the reactor outside

Iran. The international partnership will cooperate with Iran, including through technical

assistance, to fabricate, test and license fuel fabrication capabilities in Iran for

subsequent fuel core reloads for future use with this reactor. Destructive and nondestructive

testing of this fuel including Post-Irradiation-Examination (PIE) will take

place in one of the participating countries outside of Iran and that country will work with

Iran to license the subsequent fuel fabricated in Iran for the use in the redesigned

reactor under IAEA monitoring.


10. Iran will not produce or test natural uranium pellets, fuel pins or fuel assemblies, which

are specifically designed for the support of the originally designed Arak reactor,

designated by the IAEA as IR-40. Iran will store under IAEA continuous monitoring all

existing natural uranium pellets and IR-40 fuel assemblies until the modernised Arak

reactor becomes operational, at which point these natural uranium pellets and IR-40

fuel assemblies will be converted to UNH, or exchanged with an equivalent quantity of

natural uranium. Iran will make the necessary technical modifications to the natural

uranium fuel production process line that was intended to supply fuel for the IR-40

reactor design, such that it can be used for the fabrication of the fuel reloads for the

modernised Arak reactor.


11. All spent fuel from the redesigned Arak reactor, regardless of its origin, for the lifetime of

the reactor, will be shipped out of Iran to a mutually determined location in E3/EU+3

countries or third countries, for further treatment or disposition as provided for in

relevant contracts to be concluded, consistent with national laws, with the recipient

party, within one year from the unloading from the reactor or whenever deemed to be

safe for transfer by the recipient country.


12. Iran will submit the DIQ of the redesigned reactor to the IAEA which will include

information on the planned radio-isotope production and reactor operation programme.

The reactor will be operated under IAEA monitoring.


13. Iran will operate the Fuel Manufacturing Plant only to produce fuel assemblies for light

water reactors and reloads for the modernized Arak reactor.


C. HEAVY WATER PRODUCTION PLANT


14. All excess heavy water which is beyond Iran's needs for the modernised Arak research

reactor, the Zero power heavy water reactor, quantities needed for medical research

and production of deuterate solutions and chemical compounds including, where

appropriate, contingency stocks, will be made available for export to the international

market based on international prices and delivered to the international buyer for 15

years. Iran's needs, consistent with the parameters above, are estimated to be 130

metric tonnes of nuclear grade heavy water or its equivalent in different enrichments

prior to commissioning of the modernised Arak research reactor, and 90 metric tonnes

after the commissioning, including the amount contained in the reactor.


15. Iran will inform the IAEA about the inventory and the production of the HWPP and will

allow the IAEA to monitor the quantities of the heavy water stocks and the amount of

heavy water produced, including through IAEA visits, as requested, to the HWPP.


D. OTHER REACTORS


16. Consistent with its plan, Iran will keep pace with the trend of international technological

advancement in relying only on light water for its future nuclear power and research

reactors with enhanced international cooperation including assurances of supply of

necessary fuel.


17. Iran intends to ship out all spent fuel for all future and present nuclear power and

research reactors, for further treatment or disposition as provided for in relevant

contracts to be concluded consistent with national laws with the recipient party.


E. SPENT FUEL REPROCESSING ACTIVITIES


18. For 15 years Iran will not, and does not intend to thereafter, engage in any spent fuel

reprocessing or spent fuel reprocessing R&D activities. For the purpose of this annex,

spent fuel includes all types of irradiated fuel.


19. For 15 years Iran will not, and does not intend to thereafter, reprocess spent fuel except

for irradiated enriched uranium targets for production of radio-isotopes for medical and

peaceful industrial purposes.


20. For 15 years Iran will not, and does not intend to thereafter, develop, acquire or build

facilities capable of separation of plutonium, uranium or neptunium from spent fuel or

from fertile targets, other than for production of radio-isotopes for medical and peaceful

industrial purposes.


21. For 15 years, Iran will only develop, acquire, build, or operate hot cells (containing a cell

or interconnected cells), shielded cells or shielded glove boxes with dimensions less

than 6 cubic meters in volume compatible with the specifications set out in Annex I of

the Additional Protocol. These will be co-located with the modernised Arak research

reactor, the Tehran Research Reactor, and radio-medicine production complexes, and

only capable of the separation and processing of industrial or medical isotopes and

non-destructive PIE. The needed equipment will be acquired through the procurement

mechanism established by this JCPOA. For 15 years, Iran will develop, acquire, build, or

operate hot cells (containing a cell or interconnected cells), shielded cells or shielded

glove boxes with dimensions beyond 6 cubic meters in volume and specifications set

out in Annex I of the Additional Protocol, only after approval by the Joint Commission.


22. The E3/EU+3 are ready to facilitate all of the destructive and non-destructive

examinations on fuel elements and/or fuel assembly prototypes including PIE for all fuel

fabricated in or outside Iran and irradiated in Iran, using their existing facilities outside

Iran. Except for the Arak research reactor complex, Iran will not develop, build, acquire

or operate hot cells capable of performing PIE or seek to acquire equipment to

build/develop such a capability, for 15 years.


23. For 15 years, in addition to continuing current fuel testing activities at the TRR, Iran will

undertake non-destructive post irradiation examination (PIE) of fuel pins, fuel assembly

prototypes and structural materials. These examinations will be exclusively at the Arak

research reactor complex. However, the E3/EU+3 will make available their facilities to

conduct destructive testing with Iranian specialists, as agreed. The hot cells at the Arak

research reactor in which non-destructive PIE are performed will not be physically

interconnected to cells that process or handle materials for the production of medical or

industrial radioisotopes.


24. For 15 years, Iran will not engage in producing or acquiring plutonium or uranium metals

or their alloys, or conducting R&D on plutonium or uranium (or their alloys) metallurgy,

or casting, forming, or machining plutonium or uranium metal.


25. Iran will not produce, seek, or acquire separated plutonium, highly enriched uranium

(defined as 20% or greater uranium-235), or uranium-233, or neptunium-237 (except for

use as laboratory standards or in instruments using neptunium-237) for 15 years.

26. If Iran seeks to initiate R&D on uranium metal based TRR fuel in small agreed quantities

after 10 years and before 15 years, Iran will present its plan to, and seek approval by,

the Joint Commission.


F. ENRICHMENT CAPACITY


27. Iran will keep its enrichment capacity at no more than 5060 IR-1 centrifuge machines in

no more than 30 cascades in their current configurations in currently operating units at

the Natanz Fuel Enrichment Plant (FEP) for 10 years.


28. Iran will keep its level of uranium enrichment at up to 3.67 percent for 15 years.


29. Iran will remove the following excess centrifuges and infrastructure not associated with

5060 IR-1 centrifuges in FEP, which will be stored at Natanz in Hall B of FEP under

IAEA continuous monitoring:


29. All excess centrifuge machines, including IR-2m centrifuges. Excess IR-1 centrifuges

will be used for the replacement of failed or damaged centrifuges of the same type on a

one-for-one basis.


29. UF6 pipework including sub headers, valves and pressure transducers at cascade level,

and frequency inverters, and UF6 withdrawal equipment from one of the withdrawal

stations, which is currently not in service, including its vacuum pumps and chemical

traps.


30. For the purpose of this Annex, the IAEA will confirm through the established practice

the failed or damaged status of centrifuge machines before removal.


31. For 15 years, Iran will install gas centrifuge machines, or enrichment-related

infrastructure, whether suitable for uranium enrichment, research and development, or

stable isotope enrichment, exclusively at the locations and for the activities specified

under this JCPOA.


G. CENTRIFUGES RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT


32. Iran will continue to conduct enrichment R&D in a manner that does not accumulate

enriched uranium. For 10 years and consistent with its enrichment R&D plan, Iran's

enrichment R&D with uranium will only include IR-4, IR-5, IR-6 and IR-8 centrifuges.

Mechanical testing on up to two single centrifuges for each type will be carried out only

on the IR-2m, IR-4, IR-5, IR-6, IR-6s, IR-7 and IR-8. Iran will build or test, with or

without uranium, only those gas centrifuges specified in this JCPOA.


33. Consistent with its plan, Iran will continue working with the 164-machine IR-2m cascade

at PFEP in order to complete the necessary tests until 30 November 2015 or the day of

implementation of this JCPOA, whichever comes later, and after that it will take these

machines out of the PFEP and store them under IAEA continuous monitoring at Natanz

in Hall B of FEP.


34. Consistent with its plan, Iran will continue working with the 164-machine IR-4 cascade

at PFEP in order to complete the necessary tests until 30 November 2015 or the day of

implementation of this JCPOA, whichever comes later, and after that it will take these

machines out of the PFEP and store them under IAEA continuous monitoring at Natanz

in Hall B of FEP.


35. Iran will continue the testing of a single IR-4 centrifuge machine and IR-4 centrifuge

cascade of up to 10 centrifuge machines for 10 years.


36. Iran will test a single IR-5 centrifuge machine for 10 years.


37. Iran will continue testing of the IR-6 on single centrifuge machines and its intermediate

cascades and will commence testing of up to 30 centrifuge machines from one and a

half years before the end of year 10. Iran will proceed from single centrifuge machines

and small cascades to intermediate cascades in a logical sequence.


38. Iran will commence, upon start of implementation of the JCPOA, testing of the IR-8 on

single centrifuge machines and its intermediate cascades and will commence the

testing of up to 30 centrifuges machines from one and a half years before the end of

year 10. Iran will proceed from single centrifuges to small cascades to intermediate

cascades in a logical sequence.


39. For 10 years, Iran, consistent with the established practice, will recombine the enriched

and depleted streams from the IR-6 and IR-8 cascades through the use of welded

pipework on withdrawal main headers in a manner that precludes the withdrawal of

enriched and depleted uranium materials and verified by the IAEA.


40. For 15 years, Iran will conduct all testing of centrifuges with uranium only at the PFEP.

Iran will conduct all mechanical testing of centrifuges only at the PFEP and the Tehran

Research Centre.


41. For the purpose of adapting PFEP to the R&D activities in the enrichment and

enrichment R&D plan, Iran will remove all centrifuges except those needed for testing as

described in the relevant paragraphs above, except for the IR-1 cascade (No. 1) as

described below. For the full IR-1 cascade (No. 6), Iran will modify associated

infrastructure by removing UF6 pipework, including sub-headers, valves and pressure

transducers at cascade level, and frequency inverters. The IR-1 cascade (No. 1)

centrifuges will be kept but made inoperable, as verified by the IAEA, through the

removal of centrifuge rotors and the injection of epoxy resin into the sub headers,

feeding, product, and tails pipework, and the removal of controls and electrical systems

for vacuum, power and cooling. Excess centrifuges and infrastructure will be stored at

Natanz in Hall B of FEP under IAEA continuous monitoring. The R&D space in line No. 6

will be left empty until Iran needs to use it for its R&D programme.


42. Consistent with the activities in the enrichment and enrichment R&D plan, Iran will

maintain the cascade infrastructure for testing of single centrifuges and small and

intermediate cascades in two R&D lines (No. 2 and No. 3) and will adapt two other lines

(No. 4 and No. 5) with infrastructure similar to that for lines No. 2 and No. 3 in order to

enable future R&D activities as specified in this JCPoA. Adaptation will include

modification of all UF6 pipework (including removal of all sub headers except as agreed

as needed for the R&D programme) and associated instrumentation to be compatible

with single centrifuges and small and intermediate cascade testing instead of full scale

testing.


43. Consistent with its plan and internationally established practices, Iran intends to

continue R&D on new types of centrifuges through computer modelling and simulations,

including at universities. For any such project to proceed to a prototype stage for

mechanical testing within 10 years, a full presentation to, and approval by, the Joint

Commission is needed.


H. FORDOW FUEL ENRICHMENT PLANT


44. The Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP) will be converted into a nuclear, physics, and

technology centre and international collaboration will be encouraged in agreed areas of

research. The Joint Commission will be informed in advance of the specific projects that

will be undertaken at Fordow.


45. Iran will not conduct any uranium enrichment or any uranium enrichment related R&D

and will have no nuclear material at the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP) for 15

years.


46. For 15 years, Iran will maintain no more than 1044 IR-1 centrifuge machines at one wing

of the FFEP of which:


46. Two cascades that have not experienced UF6 before will be modified for the production

of stable isotopes. The transition to stable isotope production of these cascades at

FFEP will be conducted in joint partnership between the Russian Federation and Iran on

the basis of arrangements to be mutually agreed upon. To prepare these two cascades

for installation of a new cascade architecture appropriate for stable isotope production

by the joint partnership, Iran will remove the connection to the UF6 feed main header,

and move cascade UF6 pipework (except for the dump line in order to maintain

vacuum) to storage in Fordow under IAEA continuous monitoring. The Joint

Commission will be informed about the conceptual framework of stable isotope

production at FFEP.


46. For four cascades with all associated infrastructure remaining except for pipework that

enables crossover tandem connections, two will be placed in an idle state, not spinning.

The other two cascades will continue to spin until the transition to stable isotope

production described in the previous subparagraph has been completed. Upon

completion of the transition to stable isotope production described in the previous

subparagraph, these two spinning cascades will be placed in an idle state, not

spinning.


47. Iran will:


47. remove the other 2 cascades of IR-1 centrifuges from this wing, by removing all

centrifuges and cascade UF6 pipework, including sub headers, valves and pressure

transducers at cascade level, and frequency inverters.


47. also subsequently remove cascade electrical cabling, individual cascade control

cabinets and vacuum pumps. All these excess centrifuges and infrastructure will be

stored at Natanz in Hall B of FEP under IAEA continuous monitoring.


48. Iran will:


48. remove all excess centrifuges and uranium enrichment related infrastructure from

the other wing of the FFEP. This will include removal of all centrifuges and UF6

pipework, including sub headers, valves and pressure gauges and transducers, and

frequency inverters and converters, and UF6 feed and withdrawal stations.


48. also subsequently remove cascade electrical cabling, individual cascade control

cabinets, vacuum pumps and centrifuge mounting blocks. All these excess centrifuges

and infrastructure will be stored at Natanz in Hall B of FEP under IAEA continuous

monitoring.


49. Centrifuges from the four idle cascades may be used for the replacement of failed or

damaged centrifuges in stable isotope production at Fordow.


50. Iran will limit its stable isotope production activities with gas centrifuges to the FFEP for

15 years and will use no more than 348 IR-1 centrifuges for these activities at the FFEP.

The associated R&D activities in Iran will occur at the FFEP and at Iran's declared and

monitored centrifuge manufacturing facilities for testing, modification and balancing

these IR-1 centrifuges.


51. The IAEA will establish a baseline for the amount of uranium legacy from past

enrichment operations that will remain in Fordow. Iran will permit the IAEA regular

access, including daily as requested by the IAEA, access to the FFEP in order to

monitor Iran's production of stable isotopes and the absence of undeclared nuclear

material and activities at the FFEP for 15 years.


I. OTHER ASPECTS OF ENRICHMENT


52. Iran will abide by its voluntary commitments as expressed in its own long term

enrichment and enrichment R&D plan to be submitted as part of the initial declaration

described in Article 2 of the Additional Protocol.[1] The IAEA will confirm on an annual

basis, for the duration of the plan that the nature and scope and scale of Iran's

enrichment and enrichment R&D activities are in line with this plan.


53. Iran will start to install necessary infrastructure for the IR-8 at Natanz in Hall B of FEP

after year 10.


54. An agreed template for describing different centrifuge types (IR-1, IR-2m, IR-4, IR-5, IR-

6, IR-6s, IR-7, IR-8) and the associated definitions need to be accomplished by

implementation day.


55. An agreed procedure for measuring IR-1, IR-2m and IR-4 centrifuge performance data

needs to be accomplished by implementation day.


J. URANIUM STOCKS AND FUELS


56. Iran will maintain a total enriched uranium stockpile of no more than 300 kg of up to

3.67% enriched uranium hexafluoride (or the equivalent in different chemical forms) for

15 years.


57. All enriched uranium hexafluoride in excess of 300 kg of up to 3.67% enriched UF6 (or

the equivalent in different chemical forms) will be down blended to natural uranium level

or be sold on the international market and delivered to the international buyer in return

for natural uranium delivered to Iran. Iran will enter into a commercial contract with an

entity outside Iran for the purchase and transfer of its enriched uranium stockpile in

excess of 300 kg UF6 in return for natural uranium delivered to Iran. The E3/EU+3 will

facilitate, where applicable, the conclusion and implementation of this contract. Iran

may choose to seek to sell excess enriched uranium to the IAEA fuel bank in

Kazakhstan when the fuel bank becomes operational.


58. All uranium oxide enriched to between 5% and 20% will be fabricated into fuel plates

for the Tehran Research Reactor or transferred, based on a commercial transaction,

outside of Iran or diluted to an enrichment level of 3.67% or less. Scrap oxide and other

forms not in plates that cannot be fabricated into TRR fuel plates will be transferred,

based on a commercial transaction, outside of Iran or diluted to an enrichment level of

3.67% or less. In case of future supply of 19.75% enriched uranium oxide (U3O8) for

TRR fuel plates fabrication, all scrap oxide and other forms not in plates that cannot be

fabricated into TRR fuel plates, containing uranium enriched to between 5% and 20%,

will be transferred, based on a commercial transaction, outside of Iran or diluted to an

enrichment level of 3.67% or less within 6 months of its production. Scrap plates will be

transferred, based on a commercial transaction, outside Iran. The commercial

transactions should be structured to return an equivalent amount of natural uranium to

Iran. For 15 years, Iran will not build or operate facilities for converting fuel plates or

scrap back to UF6.


59. Russian designed, fabricated and licensed fuel assemblies for use in Russian-supplied

reactors in Iran do not count against the 300 kg UF6 stockpile limit. Enriched uranium in

fabricated fuel assemblies from other sources outside of Iran for use in Iran's nuclear

research and power reactors, including those which will be fabricated outside of Iran for

the initial fuel load of the modernised Arak research reactor, which are certified by the

fuel supplier and the appropriate Iranian authority to meet international standards, will

not count against the 300 kg UF6 stockpile limit. The Joint Commission will establish a

Technical Working Group with the goal of enabling fuel to be fabricated in Iran while

adhering to the agreed stockpile parameters (300 kg of up to 3.67 % enriched UF6 or

the equivalent in different chemical forms). This Technical Working Group will also,

within one year, work to develop objective technical criteria for assessing whether

fabricated fuel and its intermediate products can be readily converted to UF6. Enriched

uranium in fabricated fuel assemblies and its intermediate products manufactured in

Iran and certified to meet international standards, including those for the modernised

Arak research reactor, will not count against the 300 kg UF6 stockpile limit provided the

Technical Working Group of the Joint Commission approves that such fuel assemblies

and their intermediate products cannot be readily reconverted into UF6. This could for

instance be achieved through impurities (e.g. burnable poisons or otherwise) contained

in fuels or through the fuel being in a chemical form such that direct conversion back to

UF6 would be technically difficult without dissolution and purification. The objective

technical criteria will guide the approval process of the Technical Working Group. The

IAEA will monitor the fuel fabrication process for any fuel produced in Iran to verify that

the fuel and intermediate products comport with the fuel fabrication process that was

approved by the Technical Working Group. The Joint Commission will also support

assistance to Iran including through IAEA technical cooperation as appropriate, in

meeting international qualification standards for nuclear fuel produced by Iran.

60. Iran will seek to enter into a commercial contract with entities outside Iran for the

purchase of fuel for the TRR and enriched uranium targets. The E3/EU+3 will facilitate,

as needed, the conclusion and implementation of this contract. In the case of lack of

conclusion of a contract with a fuel supplier, E3/EU+3 will supply a quantity of 19.75%

enriched uranium oxide (U3O8) and deliver to Iran, exclusively for the purpose of

fabrication in Iran of fuel for the TRR and enriched uranium targets for the lifetime of the

reactor. This 19.75% enriched uranium oxide (U3O8) will be supplied in increments no

greater than approximately 5 kg and each new increment will be provided only when the

previous increment of this material has been verified by the IAEA to have been mixed

with aluminum to make fuel for the TRR or fabricated into enriched uranium targets. Iran

will notify the E3/EU+3 within 2 year before the contingency of TRR fuel will be

exhausted in order to have the uranium oxide available 6 months before the end of the 2

year period.


K. CENTRIFUGE MANUFACTURING


61. Consistent with its enrichment and enrichment R&D plan, Iran will only engage in

production of centrifuges, including centrifuge rotors suitable for isotope separation or

any other centrifuge components, to meet the enrichment and enrichment R&D

Whenever during the 10 year period from the start of the implementation of the JCPOA,

the level of stock of IR-1 machines falls to 500 or below, Iran may maintain this level of

stock by resuming production of IR-1 machines at a rate up to the average monthly

crash rate without exceeding the stock of 500.


63. Consistent with its plan, at the end of year 8, Iran will commence manufacturing of IR-6

and IR-8 centrifuges without rotors through year 10 at a rate of up to 200 centrifuges

per year for each type. After year 10, Iran will produce complete centrifuges with the

same rate to meet its enrichment and enrichment R&D needs. Iran will store them at

Natanz in an above ground location, under IAEA continuous monitoring, until they are

needed for final assembly according to the enrichment and enrichment R&D plan.

• Adding different types of beam tubes to the existing beam tubes which being extended

to the edge of the new compact core.

• Having one central channel in the center of the new core with passive cooling system

for the purpose of structural materials and fuel pins and assembly prototypes testing

with neutron flux beyond 2•1014, twelve in-core irradiation channels (IIC) inside the core

and twelve lateral irradiation chennals (LIC) just next to the outer ring of fuel assemblies.

• The location of the in-core and lateral irradiation channels should be designed and fixed

to meet the best anticipated performances.

• Consistent with relevant section of Annex 1, sibsidiary laboratories are part of the

modernization project of the Arak Research Reactor. In Addition, Annex III reinforce

design and construction of subsidiary laboratoties.

• The highest tolerable pressure for the first and second loop is 0.33 Mpa (at the

interance of the reactor pit).

• The highest possible flow rate for coolant is 610 kg/s at the pressure of 0.33 MPa in the

main piping system and 42 Kg/sec for Moderator with the same conditions.

:rofl:



 
You won't love the deal at all. This deal will mean that you will have to compete for market like the rest of the world. In other words, you easy days are gone. ;)

Actually, Iran will remain a tresshold nuclear state with its nuclear program IN PLACE. I dnt even know why that barbaric beheader is happy about this ? (from his jihadi perspective).

Iran will give little in return while Iran enters the free market to develop the country.

Case closed.
 
Oh no ! This is just the opposite. It is ‘a very very very big day. A wonderful day. All that for that ! :partay:



...

Go drink your camel urine desert dweller.

Even your Zionist masters are having a fit.

Not a single centrifuge is being destroyed and simply moved to a different building :lol:
R&D on Iran's most powerful centrifuge the Ir-8 will continue which if produced will give Iran the capability to produce an entire arsenal worth of weapons grade U235 in matter of a week
Iran even under this deal is still less than a year away from a bomb.
If wahabis think this is good deal, then fine by me, less moaning to the Americans.

@Daneshmand @rmi5 @haman10

Come check these sore butt wahabis here.:D
 
15. Iran will allow the IAEA to monitor the implementation of the voluntary

measures for their respective durations, as well as to implement transparency

measures, as set out in this JCPOA and its Annexes. These measures include: a

long-term IAEA presence in Iran;


well that's not going to happen.
 
Actually, Iran will remain a tresshold nuclear state with its nuclear program IN PLACE. I dnt even know why that barbaric beheader is happy about this ? (from his jihadi perspective).

Iran will give little in return while Iran enters the free market to develop the country.

Case closed.
Even without considering nuclear factor, re-entry of Iran into the global oil market is a horribly bad news for him because that means it will only end GCC dominance of market. The world will no longer have to depend on them while there are better options.
