corporation commission; small modular reactors

Summary

The bill would let utilities build or replace a small modular nuclear reactor next to a large industrial energy user without filing a state environmental compatibility certificate, but only in counties with fewer than 500,000 residents. It also adds a framework for designating aggregate‑mining zoning districts, appointing recommendation committees, and requiring state mine‑inspector approval of local regulations. The measure was vetoed by the governor.
