    In this proceeding, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board is looking into the license renewal application of Powertech (USA) Inc. for their Dewey-Burdock In Situ Uranium Recovery Facility in South Dakota. Following a petition by several organizations, the Board decided that they could participate in the case because they have valid concerns. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will also participate. A hearing will be scheduled, which the public can attend, and people interested in sharing their opinions may submit a written statement to the Board.

    Simple Explanation

    The judges are checking if a company called Powertech can keep using their special building in South Dakota to get a shiny rock called uranium. Some groups are worried and want to talk about it, so there will be a meeting where everyone can share what they think.

    The Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has been restructured following the retirement of Administrative Judge Paul S. Ryerson on November 30, 2024. Administrative Judge G. Paul Bollwerk, III will now serve as the Presiding Officer in the ongoing legal case concerning Yucca Mountain Nevada High-Level Waste Geologic Repository. This reconstitution ensures that all legal correspondence and documents will continue to be filed through the NRC's electronic filing system as usual. This change was formalized in Rockville, Maryland, on December 3, 2024.

    Simple Explanation

    The Atomic Safety and Licensing Board had a change because a judge retired, so now another judge named G. Paul Bollwerk, III will take over in a project about safely storing waste deep underground in Yucca Mountain. Everything else will keep running the same way as before for the legal work.
