Background
On October 2, 1986 Congress enacted the Comprehensive Anti-Apartheid Act of 1986.
Se,etion 309 of that Act prohibits the import into the United States of (1) uranium ore, and (2) uranium oxide that is produced or manufactured in South Africa.
Following enactment of this legislation, the commission promulgated regulations which provided that i
no South Africa-origin uranium, regardless of its form, could be imported into the United States without a license from the NRC.
