The tritium provision included in this bill will not cause any meaningful delay in the resumption of tritium production. Let me repeat that so all of my colleagues are clear about this point--our conference provision on tritium does not cause any meaningful delay in the Department of Energy's tritium production program. Energy Secretary Richardson stated this fact in a letter dated September 24, 1998, in which he said that the conference provision will have a ``minimal impact'' on DOE's tritium program.
