USEC Inc. (USU) Announces Trade Case Settlement with AREVA

May 18, 2009 9:51 AM EDT

USEC Inc. (NYSE: USU) and AREVA announced that they have agreed to settle several pending appeals and administrative proceedings arising from an antidumping order imposed on imports of French low enriched uranium (LEU) by the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) in 2002. The parties to the settlement are USEC Inc. and its subsidiary, United States Enrichment Corporation, and Eurodif S.A. and its affiliates, AREVA NC and AREVA NC Inc.

Under the terms of the settlement, the parties will immediately withdraw or request dismissal of all pending appeals and DOC proceedings. This is expected to bring to an end all pending litigation and administrative proceedings regarding DOC's 2002 antidumping duty order, which now is expected to remain in place until at least the next five-year "sunset review" in 2012.
