Energy Net on 17 Aug 09The U.S. Energy Department said on Tuesday it has agreed to delay the final review of USEC Inc's (USU.N) application for a loan guarantee to fund a new uranium enrichment processing plant. "The additional time will allow USEC to make efforts to fully address issues DOE has identified relating to the readiness of the company's uranium enrichment technology," the department said. Last month, the department asked USEC to pull its loan request for the planned American Centrifuge Plant in Piketon, Ohio.
