The IAEA Report on Iran

[International Atomic Energy Agency] At the Fuel Enrichment Plant (FEP) at Natanz, 3,936 centrifuges were being fed with UF6 and an additional 4,756 centrifuges had been installed. Iran has estimated that, between 18 November 2008 and 30 October 2009, 10,395 kg of UF6 was fed into the cascades and a total of 924 kg of low enriched UF6 was produced, which would result in a total production of 1,763 kg of low enriched UF6 since the start-up of FEP. During a meeting with the Director General in Tehran on 4 October 2009, Iran agreed to provide the Agency with access to the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP). On 26 and 27 October 2009, the Agency carried out design information verification (DIV) at FFEP, which is located about 20 km north of the city of Qom. The Agency verified that FFEP was being built to contain sixteen cascades with a total of approximately 3,000 centrifuges. Iran indicated that it currently planned to install only IR-1 centrifuges at FFEP, but that the facility could be reconfigured to contain centrifuges of more advanced types should Iran take a decision to use such centrifuges in the future. Iran stated that it did not have any other nuclear facilities that were currently under construction or in operation that had not yet been declared to the Agency. Iran has not suspended its enrichment related activities or its work on heavy water related projects as required by the Security Council.
