Court Rules Against Nebraska In Low-Level Landfill Lawsuit

U.S. District Court Judge Richard G. Kopf has entered judgment in favor of the Central Interstate Low-Level Radioactive Waste Commission against the state of Nebraska for $151,408,240, plus post-judgment interest in a lawsuit involving American Ecology subsidiary US Ecology, Inc. and three electric utility companies. The court found that Nebraska breached its good faith obligation to the CIC when processing a license application for a proposed low-level radioactive waste disposal facility in Nebraska. US Ecology submitted the license application as the CIC's contractor and developer. More information: www.ned.uscourts.gov.
