U.S. Supreme Court to decide if NRC can license nuclear waste storage facilities, overturning 5th Circuit ruling.

The U.S. Supreme Court will decide if the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) can license nuclear waste storage facilities, following a 5th Circuit Court ruling that it cannot. The case involves a license granted to Interim Storage Partners in Texas, opposed by Texas and New Mexico officials. The decision could affect similar projects and the broader nuclear energy sector. A ruling is expected by late June.
