Enrolled and presented to the Governor at 4 p.m.
Summary
The bill changes the Public Resources Code so that advanced nuclear reactors are no longer barred as a permitted land use in California, provided they meet specific technology and labor requirements. It requires the Energy Commission to produce a comprehensive assessment by July 1 2027 on how such reactors could support critical infrastructure and help the state reach its 100 percent zero‑carbon electricity target by 2045. Existing plants at Diablo Canyon, San Onofre and San Diego Gas & Electric are excluded from the new rules.
