Authorizes the Secretary to sell the reenriched uranium generated under the contract and allocate the proceeds according to a certain scheme.

Directs the Secretary to assume title to, and responsibility for, the disposition of depleted uranium so generated.

Prohibits the sale of more than 10% of the U.S. domestic uranium supply during any year after such 48-month period, unless such sales will have no significant effect on uranium markets.
