Amends the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act to prohibit the Nuclear Regulatory Commission from granting a license for any low-level radioactive waste disposal facility at a site within 60 miles of the border of a neighboring State or nation, unless the relevant interstate compact (or State that is not a member of a compact) provides notice and detailed information about the project to the neighboring noncompact State or nation and to each local government and Indian tribal unit in the targeted area, giving them the chance to comment. Requires that the compact determine that the relevant site meets listed criteria before a decision to construct the disposal facility is made.
