Texas files lawsuit against NRC for licesning ISP CISF

The Attorney General of Texas, Ken Paxton, has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Paxton filed the lawsuit on behalf of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. This lawsuit against the NRC argues that the agency's Sept. 13, 2021 approval for the Interim Storage Partners consolidated interim storage facility license is unlawful, and should be vacated. The case was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
