Five States Offer to Host Nuclear-Waste Campuses to Spur US Nuclear Revival

Tennessee, Utah, Louisiana, Idaho, and Oklahoma propose non-binding agreements to host Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campuses, which would manage spent nuclear fuel and support related activities like enrichment, reprocessing, fuel fabrication, and potentially advanced reactors, aiming to attract up to $50 billion in private investment and $10 billion in tax revenues as part of a Biden/Trump-era push to revive US nuclear power; Yucca Mountain remains stalled.
