How does 450 tons of 90% High Enriched Uranium become 14 tons of <5% Low-Enriched Uranium? I understand there should be some loss, but where does the majority of the 450 tons of 90% enriched go?

The former less referenced industry p.r. was cut and referenced more realistic data entered -- separately in 3 different sections edits. So there's some work for another editor...

as for unaccounted for discrepancies, that's what USEC left for the DOE to clean up after lost spills and vents... I've seen conservative estimates of 50b USD and 40 years for the taxpayers to clean-up the privatized boondoggle USEC's environmental left-behind mess.

Hello to all Wikipedia editors! I'm working in a company of Russian nuclear energy complex, that implements the HEU Agreement mentioned in this article from Russian side. So I's added several details and slightly modify its structure, i.e. remove the name of one of the chapters and include the main text to another chapter. Hope that I hasn't depart from Wikipedia editing rules. Besides,I offer to remove this paragraph (see below) from the article, because for my opinion it doesn't correspond with the main topic of the article. Maybe it will be better to place this paragraph to the Wiki article devoted to sustainable energy sources. Looking forward to your responses.

However, following the financial crisis of 2007–08 and with the ongoing Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, the market has seen an increasing global uranium glut.[6] As global nuclear power production dropped by 4% in 2011 and a further 7% in 2012,[7] the price of uranium oxide dropped from a high of 137 USD/lb in 2007 to the current 35.15 USD/lb (as of September 28, 2013). The nuclear renaissance appeared to falter. (Sustainable energy sources are increasingly being sought. Growing public awareness of the costly and toxic realities of nuclear energy increasingly challenge the uranium industry's claims to "economic, clean, peaceful-use" power.)
