ACTION: Notice AGENCY: Mission Description The United States Department of Commerce’s (DOC) International Trade Administration (ITA), with participation from the U.S. Departments of Energy and State, is organizing the 8th Annual U.S. Industry Program at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) General Conference, to be held September 13–16, 2015, in Vienna, Austria. The IAEA General Conference is the premier global meeting of civil nuclear policymakers and typically attracts senior officials and industry representatives from all 162 Member States. The U.S. Industry Program is part of the Department of Commerce-led Civil Nuclear Trade Initiative, a U.S. Government effort to help U.S. civil nuclear companies identify and capitalize on commercial civil nuclear opportunities around the world. The purpose of the program is to help the U.S. nuclear industry promote its services and technologies to an international audience, including senior energy policymakers from current and emerging markets as well as IAEA staff. Representatives of U.S. companies from across the U.S. civil nuclear supply chain are eligible to participate. In addition, organizations providing related services to the industry, such as universities, research institutions, and U.S. civil nuclear trade associations, are eligible for participation. The mission will help U.S. participants gain market insights, make industry contacts, solidify business strategies, and identify or advance specific projects with the goal of increasing U.S. civil nuclear exports to a wide variety of countries interested in nuclear energy. The schedule includes: (1) Meetings with foreign delegations; (2) briefings from senior U.S. Government officials and IAEA staff on important civil nuclear topics including regulatory, technology and standards issues; liability, public acceptance, export controls, financing, infrastructure development, and R&D cooperation; and (3) networking events. Past U.S. Industry Programs have included participation by the U.S. Secretary of Energy, the Chairman of the U.S. PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 5735 Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and senior U.S. Government officials from the Departments of Commerce, Energy, State, the U.S. Export-Import Bank and the National Security Council. There are significant opportunities for U.S. businesses in the global civil nuclear energy market. With 174 nuclear plant projects planned in 30 countries over the next 8–10 years, this translates to a market demand for equipment and services totaling $500– 740 billion over the next ten years. This mission contributes to the President’s National Export Initiative NEXT (https://www.trade.gov/neinext) and DOC’s Civil Nuclear Trade Initiative (https://export.gov/civilnuclear), by assisting U.S. businesses in entering or expanding in international markets, and enhancing opportunities for U.S. exports. Mission Setting The IAEA General Conference is the premier global meeting of civil nuclear policymakers, and typically attracts over 1,200 senior officials and industry representatives from all 162 IAEA Member States. As such, it is an opportunity to highlight the breadth and depth of the U.S. civil nuclear sector to foreign energy policymakers and potential customers. The U.S. Industry Program will provide opportunities for U.S. industry representatives to meet with U.S. Government and IAEA officials and discuss key issues of interest for civil nuclear exporters. The program will also feature exclusive briefings from foreign government representatives, providing opportunities for participants to develop contacts in potential export markets. Past U.S. Industry Programs have included participation from U.S. companies and organizations from across the U.S. civil nuclear supply chain, including large reactor and small modular reactor (SMR) designers; component manufacturers; engineering, procurement, and construction firms; civil nuclear program management providers; advisory services firms; fuel cycle service providers (including uranium enrichment); National Laboratories; and industry trade associations and professional organizations. Mission Goals The purpose of the U.S. Industry Program is to highlight the benefits of U.S. civil nuclear technology to foreign decision makers in key export markets and to enable representatives from the U.S. public and private sector to discuss U.S. industry’s role in the safe and secure expansion of civil nuclear power E:\FR\FM\03FEN1.SGM 03FEN1
