The responses increased because two of the licensees are generating more classified information. One licensee is now an operating enrichment plant and the other is close to receiving its second license to construct and operate a commercial uranium enrichment plant. In addition, the cost increased due to the increase in the fee rate from $238 to $274/hr.
