Responsible Containment Reauthorization Act of 2026
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources.
Summary
The Responsible Containment Reauthorization Act of 2026 amends the 1978 Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act to remove the existing deadline for the disposal site in Mesa County, Colorado. By doing so, the site can continue operating until it is filled to its designed capacity, affecting the management of uranium mill tailings and the communities near the site. The change ensures continued safe containment without a preset end date.
