“During the fourth quarter of 2023, and upon information and belief during the third quarter of 2023 after the Discharge Law became effective, Holtec discharged radiological substances into the Hudson River in connection with decommissioning of Indian Point in violation of the Discharge Law,” James alleges in legal papers filed July 3 in U.S. federal court.
