RECA
Radiation Exposure Compensation Act
Between 1945 and 1962, the U.S. Government conducted a multitude of atmospheric nuclear weapons tests—most notably in Nevada and New Mexico, but also on islands in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. In the decades that followed, thousands of uranium workers, Downwind residents, and tribal communities suffered health consequences from radiation exposure.
Under the newly expanded RECA program, more geographic areas and additional time periods are now covered. This includes residents of New Mexico, Idaho, all of Utah, and certain counties in Arizona and Nevada, extended coverage for uranium workers to 1990, and broader recognition of those involved in uranium mining, milling, drilling, remediation and transport across the Four Corners region and beyond.
Have you or your loved ones lived, worked, or spent time in areas now recognized as affected by nuclear testing or uranium industry activities? You may now be eligible to file a claim under the expanded RECA program.

Questions
Answering the questions below will help determine if you or your loved ones may qualify for compensation under the expanded Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA) program.
- Are you or a loved one suffering from cancer, leukemia, or another serious radiation-related illness?
- Did you or your loved one live in Nevada (certain counties), Utah, Arizona (Mohave, Yavapai, Coconino, Navajo, Apache and Gila counties), New Mexico or Idaho for a period of one year between 1951 and 1962 (1944 – 1962 for New Mexico only)?
- Did you or your loved one participate in nuclear weapons testing, work at a test site, or assist with cleanup after atmospheric tests?
- Did you or a loved one live near a known nuclear waste transfer or transport site, including areas tied to Manhattan Project waste shipments? Eligibility is based on residence in certain ZIP codes newly identified under the expanded RECA law.
- Did you or your loved one mine, mill, drill, remediate or transport uranium ore, including work performed after 1971, which is now included under the expansion?
