💨 Abstract

The U.S. Supreme Court is considering whether the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has the authority to license nuclear waste storage facilities, with arguments centered on a case involving a facility in western Texas. The justices are examining the claim that Congress gave the NRC the power to license temporary off-site storage, with some conservative justices expressing skepticism and some liberal justices questioning the plaintiffs' right to challenge the license.
