CHAPTER 88 - NUCLEAR NON-PROLIFERATION TREATY - UNITED STATES
ADDITIONAL PROTOCOL IMPLEMENTATION

-HEAD-
Sec. 8101. Findings

-STATUTE-
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The proliferation of nuclear weapons and other nuclear
explosive devices poses a grave threat to the national security
of the United States and its vital national interests.
(2) The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty has proven critical to
limiting such proliferation.
(3) For the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty to be effective,
each of the non-nuclear-weapon State Parties must conclude a
comprehensive safeguards agreement with the IAEA, and such
agreements must be honored and enforced.
(4) Recent events emphasize the urgency of strengthening the
effectiveness and improving the efficiency of the safeguards
system. This can best be accomplished by providing IAEA
inspectors with more information about, and broader access to,
nuclear activities within the territory of non-nuclear-weapon
State Parties.
(5) The proposed scope of such expanded information and access
has been negotiated by the member states of the IAEA in the form
of a Model Additional Protocol to its existing safeguards
agreements, and universal acceptance of Additional Protocols by
non-nuclear weapons states is essential to enhancing the
effectiveness of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
(6) On June 12, 1998, the United States, as a nuclear-weapon
State Party, signed an Additional Protocol that is based on the
Model Additional Protocol, but which also contains measures,
consistent with its existing safeguards agreements with its
members, that protect the right of the United States to exclude
the application of IAEA safeguards to locations and activities
with direct national security significance or to locations or
information associated with such activities.
(7) Implementation of the Additional Protocol in the United
States in a manner consistent with United States obligations
under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty may encourage other
parties to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, especially non-
nuclear-weapon State Parties, to conclude Additional Protocols
and thereby strengthen the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty
safeguards system and help reduce the threat of nuclear
proliferation, which is of direct and substantial benefit to the
United States.
(8) Implementation of the Additional Protocol by the United
States is not required and is completely voluntary given its
status as a nuclear-weapon State Party, but the United States has
acceded to the Additional Protocol to demonstrate its commitment
to the nuclear nonproliferation regime and to make United States
civil nuclear activities available to the same IAEA inspections
as are applied in the case of non-nuclear-weapon State Parties.
(9) In accordance with the national security exclusion
contained in Article 1.b of its Additional Protocol, the United
States will not allow any inspection activities, nor make any
declaration of any information with respect to, locations,
information, and activities of direct national security
significance to the United States.
(10) Implementation of the Additional Protocol will conform to
the principles set forth in the letter of April 30, 2002, from
the United States Permanent Representative to the International
Atomic Energy Agency and the Vienna Office of the United Nations
to the Director General of the International Atomic Energy
Agency.

(a) In general
(1) Procedure

Except as provided in paragraph (2), an appropriate official
of the United States Government shall seek or have the consent
of the owner, operator, occupant, or agent in charge of a
location prior to entering that location in connection with

title. The owner, operator, occupant, or agent in charge of the
location may withhold consent for any reason or no reason.
(B) Administrative search warrant
In the absence of consent, the United States Government may
seek an administrative search warrant from a judge of the
United States under subsection (b). Proceedings regarding the
issuance of an administrative search warrant shall be conducted
ex parte, unless otherwise requested by the United States
Government.
(2) Expedited access
For purposes of obtaining access to a location pursuant to
Article 4b.(ii) of the Additional Protocol in order to satisfy
United States obligations under the Additional Protocol when
notice of two hours or less is required, the United States
Government may gain entry to such location in connection with
complementary access, to the extent such access is consistent
with the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution,
without obtaining either a warrant or consent.
(b) Administrative search warrants for complementary access
(1) Obtaining administrative search warrants
For complementary access conducted in the United States
pursuant to the Additional Protocol, and for which the
acquisition of a warrant is required, the United States
Government shall first obtain an administrative search warrant
from a judge of the United States. The United States Government
shall provide to such judge all appropriate information regarding
the basis for the selection of the facility, site, or other
location to which complementary access is sought.
(2) Content of affidavits for administrative search warrants
A judge of the United States shall promptly issue an
administrative search warrant authorizing the requested
complementary access upon an affidavit submitted by the United
States Government -
(A) stating that the Additional Protocol is in force;
(B) stating that the designated facility, site, or other
location is subject to complementary access under the
Additional Protocol;
(C) stating that the purpose of the complementary access is
consistent with Article 4 of the Additional Protocol;
(D) stating that the requested complementary access is in
accordance with Article 4 of the Additional Protocol;
(E) containing assurances that the scope of the IAEA's
complementary access, as well as what it may collect, shall be
limited to the access provided for in Article 6 of the
Additional Protocol;
(F) listing the items, documents, and areas to be searched
and seized;
(G) stating the earliest commencement and the anticipated
duration of the complementary access period, as well as the
expected times of day during which such complementary access
will take place; and
(H) stating that the location to which entry in connection
with complementary access is sought was selected either -
(i) because there is probable cause, on the basis of
specific evidence, to believe that information required to be
reported regarding a location pursuant to regulations
promulgated under this chapter is incorrect or incomplete,
and that the location to be accessed contains evidence
regarding that violation; or
(ii) pursuant to a reasonable general administrative plan
based upon specific neutral criteria.
(3) Content of warrants
A warrant issued under paragraph (2) shall specify the same
matters required of an affidavit under that paragraph. In
addition, each warrant shall contain the identities of the
representatives of the IAEA on the complementary access team and
the identities of the representatives or designees of the United
States Government required to display identifying credentials

(D) Factors for determination of penalty amounts

do business, any history of such violations, the degree of
culpability, the existence of an internal compliance program,

of the designated executive agency for final decision and order.
If, within 60 days, the head of the designated executive agency

a final agency action under this subsection.
(4) Judicial review
A person adversely affected by a final order may, within 30
days after the date the final order is issued, file a petition in
the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit or in
the Court of Appeals for the district in which the violation
occurred.
(5) Enforcement of final orders
(A) In general
If a person fails to comply with a final order issued against
such person under this subsection and -
(i) the person has not filed a petition for judicial review
of the order in accordance with paragraph (4), or
(ii) a court in an action brought under paragraph (4) has
entered a final judgment in favor of the designated executive
agency,

the head of the designated executive agency shall commence a
civil action to seek compliance with the final order in any
appropriate district court of the United States.
(B) No review
In any such civil action, the validity and appropriateness of
the final order shall not be subject to review.
(C) Interest
Payment of penalties assessed in a final order under this
section shall include interest at currently prevailing rates
calculated from the date of expiration of the 60-day period
referred to in paragraph (3) or the date of such final order,
as the case may be.
(b) Criminal
