Bill information

Summary

A bill to amend the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 to align the licensing of uranium enrichment facilities with other fuel cycle facilities under that Act, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

This bill would change how uranium enrichment facilities are regulated under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. Uranium enrichment is the process of increasing the concentration of a specific uranium isotope for use in nuclear fuel. Currently, these facilities follow different licensing rules than other nuclear fuel cycle facilities, which produce or process nuclear materials. The bill would make uranium enrichment facilities follow the same licensing process as those other facilities. The bill is currently engrossed, meaning it has passed one and is being prepared for the other chamber's consideration.
