What it does
The American Enrichment Deployment Act would amend the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 to allow uranium enrichment facilities to begin construction before receiving a license, under the same terms and conditions as other fuel cycle facilities, aiming to enable timely and safe deployment. It requires the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to issue or revise implementing regulations within 180 days of enactment. The bill preserves the NRC’s authority to regulate construction and deny licenses for noncompliance, and maintains affected persons’ right to a hearing under the Atomic Energy Act.
