This letter dated March 8, 1957 summarizes the results of preliminary studies on the stepwise expansion of Purex facilities to the ultimate rate of 4.0 capacity factor, using a two-cycle flow-sheet. Briefly, it was suggested that Purex be expanded to the intermediate capacity of 3.5 capacity factor using available FY-1958 funds insofar as possible; decision to expand Purex to 4.0 capacity factor, could have been deferred for subsequent budgetary consideration.
