CLEAN SMART Act of 2024
The CLEAN SMART Act of 2024 establishes a Network of National Laboratories to improve the scientific and technical expertise used in cleaning up nuclear waste sites. This Network, including major laboratories like Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, and Savannah River, will develop new treatment technologies to minimize environmental contamination, lower cleanup costs, and accelerate remediation schedules. The bill authorizes $55 million annually for the Network's activities and creates a Technology Development and Deployment Framework to guide cleanup efforts. It requires the Department of Energy to submit annual reports to Congress on the Network's progress and technology adoption.
