House Concurrent Resolution 1

# Plain-Language Summary House Concurrent Resolution 1 is a symbolic statement of support—rather than a binding law—in which Utah declares its backing for the advanced nuclear manufacturing industry and expresses its desire to attract nuclear manufacturing operations to the state. The resolution highlights opportunities in recycling spent nuclear fuel to extract valuable materials like medical isotopes and materials for nuclear batteries, noting that some companies are already doing this work in Utah. By passing this resolution, the legislature and governor commit to helping nuclear technology companies address challenges related to safety, transportation, and waste management, and signal that Utah welcomes this industry. Since no money is appropriated and no special clauses are included, this resolution serves primarily as a statement of the state's policy position and economic development priorities.
