Daily on Energy ⚡ — The bipartisan bill to make US the globe’s next-gen nuclear leader
BIPARTISAN SENATE MOVES ON NUCLEAR: The Environment and Public Works Committee wants to make the U.S. the leading global developer and exporter of advanced nuclear reactor technologies, passing this morning the bipartisan ADVANCE Act to generate more civil nuclear diplomacy around the world.
The bill also authorizes the chairman of the NRC to appoint dozens of highly specialized staff, including reactor engineers, structural engineers, and physicists, to support NRC work and ensure that licensing work be done swiftly. Sens. Ed Markey, Jeff Merkley, and Bernie Sanders opposed the legislation. Markey had the most to say, critiquing the bill for what he saw as an ill-advised expansion of the NRC’s mandate of ensuring nuclear safety.
The bill codifies firm timelines for NEPA reviews and allows project developers recourse when agencies fail to meet them. It also puts page limits on environmental assessments and environmental impact statements. Transmission: Efforts to get something done on transmission reform, including via inclusion of the last-minute Peters-Hickenlooper BIG WIRES Act, ended up mostly fizzling out.
“It now is going to be putting Democrats on record supporting basically judicial limitations on a conventional energy project,” he told reporters yesterday.
