(1) To cooperate actively in the program thus instituted; and
(2) To the extent that the regulation of special nuclear materials and by-product materials, of production facilities and utilization facilities, and of persons operating such facilities may be within the jurisdiction of the state, to provide for the exercise of the state's regulatory authority so as to conform, as nearly as may be, to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, 42 U.S.C. § 2011 et seq., and regulations issued thereunder, to the end that there may be, in effect, a single harmonious system of regulation within the state.
