Interstate Compacts As A Device To Develop And Regulate Atomic Energy, W. Harold Bigham
Vanderbilt Law Review
When the Congress adopted the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, releasing the atom from federal monopoly and inviting the division of regulatory and control functions between the federal government and the states, the gates were opened for large-scale participation by private industry in the new technology. It was natural, therefore, that the states should begin to view with awakened interest the role which they are to play in the development and regulation of this new source of energy. However amorphous the role of the states may be as yet, some preparation is being made to accept the responsibilities which will …

The purpose of this article is to explore the question of how governmental responsibility for regulation of radiation hazards associated with atomic energy activities may best be allocated between the federal government and the states. While division of such responsibility is theoretically not essential--it being legally conceivable that the federal government could shoulder the entire responsibility alone or could leave it entirely to the states--various factors which will be mentioned below appear to make some sort of division of responsibility a practical necessity. To explore this question of division of responsibility, we shall first review the nature of radiation and …

Early in 1951 a group of interested members of the faculty of The University of Michigan Law School conceived the idea of a research project, the purpose of which would be to investigate the principal unique legal problems being created and likely to be created in the future by peaceful uses of atomic energy. The group planned the preparation and publication of a series of manuscripts which might ultimately emerge as one or more printed volumes dealing with the legal problems affecting this new form of energy. Many phases of the subject were scrutinized, including the rule-making and licensing powers …
