The claim of Entergy was specifically based on the point as I related it above:

Count One seeks a permanent injunction and declaration that three Vermont enactments governing Vermont Yankee, title 10, section 6522 of the Vermont Statutes3 (added by Act 74), Act 160, and Act 189,4 are grounded in nuclear safety concerns and therefore invalid under the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution because they are preempted by the Atomic Energy Act.

The supremacy clause only applies when there is actually a Federal statute that conflicts with a State law. The NRC is given authority to regulate safety. That isn't carte blanche to do anything they want or to override any and all state laws.

Murtha's decision on Vermont Yankee spends 20 or so pages recounting the debate when the state law was passed, and his focus was incident after incident of legislators expressing concerns over safety.

Where in the hell do you come up with all the bullpucky you spew?
