Modifies certain CAFRA permit review requirements for nuclear facilities.

Summary

The bill changes the Coastal Area Facility Review Act so the Department of Environmental Protection commissioner must find a nuclear plant's waste storage method safe, NRC‑compliant, and free of danger before issuing a permit. It lets the commissioner deny or condition permits if those standards aren't met. The change is intended to remove an outdated barrier to building advanced nuclear reactors in New Jersey.
