</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;This Administrative Order on Consent (&#147;Order&#148;) is entered into
voluntarily by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (&#147;EPA&#148;), the
United States Enrichment Corporation (&#147;USEC&#148; or &#147;Respondent&#148;), and the United
States Department of Energy and Department of the Army (&#147;Settling Federal
Agencies&#148;). This Order provides for the performance of a removal action by the
Respondent, the payment by the Settling Federal Agencies for a removal action
to be performed by EPA, and the reimbursement by Respondent of costs to be
incurred by the United States from the actions taken pursuant to the sections
of this Order which apply to the Respondent, at or in connection with the
property located at the Starmet CMI facility located at 365 Metal Drive, in
Barnwell, Barnwell County, South Carolina (&#147;Site&#148;). This Order also
constitutes a settlement agreement between the United States and USEC to
resolve USEC&#146;s contribution claims against the Settling Federal Agencies. This
Order requires Respondent to conduct the removal action described herein and
requires the Settling Federal Agencies to fund a removal action to be performed
by EPA to abate what EPA believes to be an imminent and substantial
endangerment to the public health, welfare or the environment that may be
presented by the actual or threatened release of hazardous substances,
pollutants, or contaminants at or from the Site.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;This Order is issued under the authority vested in the President of

9604, 9606(a), 9607 and 9622, as amended (&#147;CERCLA&#148;). The settlement agreement
between USEC and the United States with regard to the Settling Federal Agencies
is entered into pursuant to the Attorney General&#146;s authority to settle matters
in anticipation of litigation.

right to controvert in any subsequent proceedings other than proceedings to
implement or enforce this Order, the validity or accuracy of the findings of
facts, conclusions of law, and determinations in Sections&nbsp;IV and V of this
Order. The Respondent and the Settling Federal Agencies agree to comply with
and be bound by the terms of this Order and further agree that they will not
contest the basis or validity of this Order or its terms.

</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;EPA finds as follows:
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.&nbsp;From June, 1985 until August, 1993, approximately 17,079,177 pounds of
depleted uranium hexafluoride (&#147;UF6&#148;) was shipped by the U.S. Department of
Energy (&#147;DOE&#148;) from DOE&#146;s uranium enrichment facility in Paducah KY, at the
request of the Department of Defense (&#147;DOD&#148;) to the Starmet facility in
Barnwell. Starmet performed work under DOD Contracts to

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">convert the UF6 to
uranium tetrafluoride (&#147;UF4&#148;) at Starmet. This process generated calcium
fluoride, dry active waste (&#147;DAW&#148;), process wastewater, and other materials and
waste products.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.&nbsp;Prior to 1993, much of the UF4 was further processed into uranium
metal (i.e., &#147;derbies&#148;). This process generated magnesium fluoride, DAW,
process wastewater<B>, </B>pyrophoric uranium scrap, and other materials as waste
products. The metal was used to produce counter weights for high performance
aircraft, and DU munitions at the Starmet facility in Concord, Massachusetts.
Approximately 281 off-spec derbies remain on site.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.&nbsp;The Energy Policy Act of 1992 Pub. L. 102-486 created the United
States Enrichment Corporation, a wholly owned government corporation and an
agency and instrumentality of the United States (&#147;USEC Federal&#148;) as an interim
measure towards the privatization of DOE&#146;s uranium enrichment enterprise. On
July&nbsp;1, 1993, DOE&#146;s uranium enrichment enterprise was transferred to USEC
Federal and portions of DOE&#146;s uranium enrichment plants in Paducah Kentucky and
Portsmouth Ohio were leased to USEC Federal. Pursuant to the USEC
Privatization Act, Pub. L. 104-134, the assets of USEC Federal were transferred
to USEC and USEC was privatized on July&nbsp;28, 1998. USEC Federal ceased to exist
following this transfer.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.&nbsp;From August&nbsp;1998 until September&nbsp;2001, USEC shipped 12,758,824 lbs of
UF6 to the Starmet facility in Barnwell, to be converted into UF4. Of this
amount, 88,178 pounds were returned to USEC.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.&nbsp;Starmet also acquired UF4 (&#147;lump cake&#148; and &#147;yellow cake&#148;) from DOE.
Much of this material was unsuitable for any use due to its physical
properties, and an estimated 6028 drums of this material remains stored at the
Site. A portion of these drums are deteriorating. Starmet also acquired <I>de
minimis </I>quantities of materials from a number of other companies.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.&nbsp;In total, an estimated 11,800 drums of UF4 are stored at the Site.
In addition, approximately 4,175 drums of calcium fluoride and 116 drums of
magnesium fluoride are stored at the Site. There are 79 B25 boxes which
contain scrap metal with UF4 residual. Additionally, there are 9 SeaLand
containers on at the Site which contain, among other things, spent parts from
Derby manufacturing. These parts are embedded with uranium contamination.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.&nbsp;A significant number of the steel drums used for the storage of the
UF4 are visibly deteriorating, and many of the drums are leaking.
</FONT>


<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.&nbsp;Uranium metal scraps from machining operations were abandoned at the
Site, and are generating explosive Hydrogen gas.
