The Legislature finds and declares that the exploration, mining or milling of fissionable source materials poses a significant danger to the public health, safety and welfare; that the hazards associated with these activities cannot now be prevented or satisfactorily minimized; that, therefore, unprecedented caution is needed in determining public policy pertaining to the exploration, mining and milling of fissionable source materials; and that the prohibition of these activities is necessary at this time to insure the protection of the public health, safety and welfare.
