The affected area is redrawn across five states
What the document says“the States of New Mexico, Utah, and Idaho;”
The section rewrites section 4(b)(1) of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act so an affected area means New Mexico, Utah and Idaho; in Nevada the counties of White Pine, Nye, Lander, Lincoln and Eureka and part of Clark County; and in Arizona the counties of Coconino, Yavapai, Navajo, Apache, Gila and Mohave. For a claim under the two new presence grounds, the affected area is only New Mexico.
What the document actually says“the States of New Mexico, Utah, and Idaho;”
Three whole states are named. They are New Mexico, Utah and Idaho.
Parts of Nevada and Arizona follow. Named counties there are covered. For the two new grounds only New Mexico counts.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
