Massachusetts H2661 aims to enhance public health and safety standards in communities near aging nuclear power plants and high-level nuclear waste.
Massachusetts H2661 seeks to improve public health and safety standards in communities located within a fifty-mile radius of nuclear power plants or inactive nuclear power plants storing nuclear waste. The bill mandates the director to designate these areas as "nuclear power plant areas" until all nuclear waste is removed from the site. This applies to both active and inactive nuclear facilities, regardless of whether they are within the state. The legislation focuses on ensuring higher safety standards in these communities to protect public health.
