Federal court rules federal authority over nuclear power
A federal judge in California held that the United States must regulate the nuclear power industry, striking down three 1976 California laws including a ban on new plants until waste disposal is found. Gov. Edmund Brown Jr vowed to appeal as the Energy Commission negotiates its case with the 9th Circuit. The ruling cites the 1954 Atomic Energy Act giving federal final say over nuclear regulation.
