This bill prioritizes the removal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) from nuclear power plants that are decommissioned, located near large populations, and are at high risk for earthquakes. This prioritization ensures that SNF will be removed first from those areas that pose the highest risk to the surrounding population.
This bill addresses Green New Deal goal 2(L)p.10 to clean up and redevelop hazardous waste sites.
