Law

Congress directs the Energy Department to transfer the federal Moab site to Grand County, Utah, once cleanup is far enough along for a safe handoff.
The transfer would be free, but it could come with safety rules or land-use limits to protect people’s health, set by the Energy Department and nuclear regulators.
Even after the land transfer, the federal government would keep certain water rights and access it needs to continue any required groundwater cleanup and well work.
Grand County would be barred from selling or giving any of the transferred land to a private company or nonprofit group.
The Energy Department can add extra conditions to protect federal interests as part of the transfer deal.
