AIKEN - The first step in a government program to convert weapons-grade uranium into electricity has begun at Savannah River Site. 



The process involves combining the excess uranium, which has been chemically enriched, with natural uranium to make low-enriched uranium fuel. The fuel will be used in Tennessee Valley Authority nuclear reactors.
