Projected Receipts

The projection for United States receipts of UO, in fiscal years 1959 through 1962 has
been increased by 5,700 tons over the forecast shown in the December 1957 Program Status
Report. The increase of 8,675 tons in domestic receipts as a result of the limited expansion
of domestic uranium procurement will be partially offset by decreases in receipts from Canada

and South Africa. Detailed projections for fiscal years 1959 through 1963 are shown in SRCHIVES
