Abolishes prohibition on issuing certificate of need for new nuclear power plant in Minnesota.
The bill amends Minnesota Statutes to remove the prohibition on issuing a certificate of need for the construction of a new nuclear-powered electric generating plant. It also mandates that any certificate of need for additional storage of spent nuclear fuel for a facility seeking a license extension must address the impacts of continued operations over the period for which approval is sought. This change takes effect the day following final enactment.
