1 The U.S. Protocol I Safeguards Agreement was concluded as an executive agreement pursuant to a treaty (Additional Protocol I) brought into force with the advice and consent of the United States Senate. It implements the specific treaty obligation in Additional Protocol I to enter into a safeguards agreement in accordance with Article 13 of the Treaty. The Senate was aware of this treaty obligation when ratifying the protocol (Senate Report No. 97-23, 97th Congress, 1st Session, October 19, 1981). No additional legislative authority would be needed to implement generally the U.S. Protocol I Safeguards Agreement in the event nuclear material subject to safeguards were introduced into U.S. Protocol terri¬tories since there is adequate existing legal authority to implement the obligations undertaken therein.
