The actual physical movement of uranium from a location outside the United States to a location inside the United States.
Industry:Energy
A motor vehicle consisting primarily of a single motorised device with more than two axles or more than four tires.
Industry:Energy
The uranium that occurs in known mineral deposits of such size, grade, and configuration that it could be recovered within the given production cost ranges, with currently proven mining and processing technology. Estimates of tonnage and grade are based on specific sample data and measurements of the deposits and on knowledge of deposit characteristics. RAR correspond to DOE's Reserves category.
Industry:Energy
When applied to electric air-conditioning equipment, it means a two-part system--an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit is an evaporator coil mounted in the indoor circulating air system, and the outdoor unit is an air-cooled condensing unit containing an electric motor-driven compressor, a condenser fan, and a fan motor.
Industry:Energy
A plant where uranium is separated from ore taken from mines.
Industry:Energy
Any contracted gas supply other than owned reserves, producer-contracted reserves, and interstate pipeline purchases that are used for acts and services for which the company has received certificate authorization from FERC. Purchases from intrastate pipelines pursuant to Section 311(b) of the NGPA of 1978 are included with other supply contracts.
Industry:Energy
A utility company-sponsored conservation programme whereby the utility company returns a portion of the purchase price cost when a more energy-efficient refrigerator, water heater, air conditioner, or other appliance is purchased.
Industry:Energy
Use of one tails assay for transaction of enrichment services and a different tails assay for operation of the enrichment plant. This mode of operations typically increases the use of uranium, which is relatively inexpensive, while decreasing the use of separative work, which is expensive.
Industry:Energy
The sand-like materials left over from the separation of uranium from its ore. More than 99 percent of the ore becomes tailings.
Industry:Energy
Those trucks and vans that weigh more than 8,500 lbs GVW.
