New York, a subsidiary of American Machine and Foundry company,          1 AMP will also act as agent in connection with the fabriertion of fuel for the reactor. The reactor will be the primary facility of the Nuclear Center, which will also contain scientific-support-ing facilities dealing with the experimental and applied aspects of nuclear energy. A radio-chemical laboratory for nuclear re-search and isotope separation, a physics and electronics labora-tory, machine shops, health physics and waste disposal services are some of the other facilities which will comprise the Nuclear Center. Israeli firms will construct the buildings which will house the Center.
