Bill Summary

Relative to aging nuclear power plants and high level nuclear waste dump sites. Public Safety and Homeland Security.

AI Summary

This bill aims to improve public health and safety standards in communities around aging nuclear power plants and high-level nuclear waste dump sites. It amends a previous law to designate certain areas of the Commonwealth as "nuclear power plant areas," which will consist of all communities located within a 50-mile radius of any active or inactive nuclear power plant that is storing nuclear waste. The bill allows for assessments to be made against both active and inactive nuclear power facilities that harbor spent nuclear fuel, high-level waste, or other nuclear material, until the nuclear waste leaves the site.
