Summary

This bill modifies the existing Radioactive Waste Investigation Fund by removing the annual caps on funding transfers and investigation expenditures, which were previously limited to $150,000 per fiscal year. The fund will continue to be used by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to investigate concerns about radioactive waste exposure when requested by local governments, with the same procedures for prioritizing requests, conducting investigations, and reporting results. By eliminating the spending limits, the bill allows for potentially more extensive or numerous investigations of radioactive contamination concerns, while maintaining the requirement that any unused funds at the end of the biennium revert to the hazardous waste fund.
