💨 Abstract

The U.S. Supreme Court is hearing arguments on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's authority to license nuclear waste storage facilities, with objections raised by Texas, New Mexico, and the oil industry. The court is considering a lower court ruling that declared the storage arrangement unlawful, and the case has been appealed by the U.S. government and a private company awarded a license by the NRC to operate a facility in Texas.
