supersede or modify any provision of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954.
(b) Research relating to national defense

under this chapter in connection with matters relating to the
national defense, with respect to which funds have been transferred
to the Foundation from the Department of Defense in accordance with
the provisions of section 1873(f) of this title, the Secretary of
Defense shall establish such security requirements and safeguards,
including restrictions with respect to access to information and
property, as he deems necessary.
(2) In the case of scientific or engineering research activities

national defense other than research activities referred to in

such security requirements and safeguards, including restrictions
with respect to access to information and property, as it deems
necessary.
(3) Any agency of the Government exercising investigatory
