State Regulation Of Worker Safety In The Nuclear Industry: The Impact Of Goodyear Atomic Corp. V. Miller, Donald A. Mihokovich
Akron Law Review
This casenote will discuss the effect of Goodyear Atomic Corp. v. Miller on federal preemption in the nuclear industry. This decision does not mark federal preemption's demise. Preemption will continue in areas involving protection of the public from the dangers of radioactivity. Nevertheless, this decision may have an adverse effect on the private sector's continuing involvement in the nuclear industry, an involvement that is essential for both national energy policy and national defense.
