Granting the consent of the Congress to the Mid-west Interstate Low-Level Radioactive Waste Compact. A report submitted to the House of Representatives, Ninety-Ninth Congress, First Session, December 5, 1985
A favorable report from the Energy and Commerce Committee on H.R. 2635 would establish a regional compact for the states of Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin for the cooperative handling of low-level wastes. The bill amends the 1980 Act, and the committee suggests further changes in the bill. The report summarizes the bill's intent and provides background information on the need for legislation to ensure access to existing facilities until the regional facilities are built and operating. The committee held two days of hearings on several related bills during the summer of 1985, but made no oversight recommendations and found no inflationary impact. The report concludes with a section-by-section analysis and a statement finding no conflict with existing rules.
