AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes the definition of "production facility" in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. Under the change, equipment or devices that reprocess spent nuclear fuel in a way that does not separate plutonium from other transuranic elements would no longer count as a production facility. The existing exclusion for equipment that separates uranium isotopes or enriches uranium would stay in place. This affects which federal licensing rules apply to such equipment.
