    The President issued a determination stating there is enough oil available from countries other than Iran to allow for a significant reduction in purchasing Iranian oil. This decision is based on reports from the Energy Information Administration and considers global economic conditions, increased oil production by other nations, and strategic reserves. The Secretary of State is tasked with publishing this determination in the Federal Register. This action aligns with Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2012.

    Simple Explanation

    The President decided there is enough oil from places other than Iran, so countries can buy less oil from Iran. This means that if people use less Iranian oil, it might make a safer world, and important government workers will tell everyone about this plan.

    The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), part of the Department of Energy, has requested an extension for its Uranium Data Program. This program collects data on uranium production and marketing in the U.S. through three surveys. EIA plans to stop protecting certain survey information under the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency guidelines due to changes in the uranium market. Although there are no additional costs, the time to complete one of the forms has increased.

    Simple Explanation

    The Energy Information Administration wants to keep collecting and sharing data about how uranium is made and sold in the U.S., but they're making some changes to how they protect this information and how long it takes people to fill out their forms. They explain the need for these changes and say they will still share some of the data with the public.
