Modifies financial requirements of the radioactive waste investigation fund

This bill modifies the rules for the radioactive waste investigation fund, allowing local governments to request state-led investigations into potential radioactive contamination in their areas. Under the new provisions, a local governing body can submit a written request with supporting details to trigger an investigation using sound scientific methods, which may include collecting dust samples inside homes only with homeowner permission. The state Department of Natural Resources will prioritize these requests based on arrival time or proximity to known federal contamination sites and must publish the final results on its website within forty-five days. Additionally, the bill sets a spending limit of $150,000 per fiscal year for the fund and requires the department to seek reimbursement from federal agencies for cleanup expenses.
