Michael K. Simpson has not publicly weighed in on Spent nuclear fuel storage at Idaho National Laboratory and the 1995 Settlement Agreement's deadlines

Michael K. Simpson has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "Spent nuclear fuel storage at Idaho National Laboratory and the 1995 Settlement Agreement's deadlines" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: Simpson represents the district containing Idaho National Laboratory and has served on the Appropriations subcommittee overseeing DOE. The 1995 Idaho Settlement Agreement — negotiated by then-Governor Phil Batt — established legally binding deadlines for removing spent nuclear fuel stored at INL from Idaho by specific dates, including a 2035 final removal deadline. The Department of Energy has repeatedly missed interim milestones under this agreement. As the INL's congressional representative and Energy and Water Appropriations subcommittee member, Simpson would be expected to have a comprehensive accountability record on DOE's compliance with the settlement agreement's fuel removal obligations. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Simpson has been publicly active on INL funding, nuclear energy research, and general energy appropriations, issuing multiple press releases on INL budget allocations and nuclear energy policy. No comprehensive public accountability record specifically addressing DOE's compliance with the 1995 Settlement Agreement's spent nuclear fuel removal milestones has been identified, despite this being the most significant environmental obligation specific to his constituency's relationship with the federal government.
