Nuclear Waste Task Force Act of 2021 This bill directs the Environmental Protection Agency to establish a task force that must evaluate the implications of amending the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 to remove exemptions from environmental laws for spent nuclear waste and high-level radioactive waste in order to enable consent-based siting of disposal and storage solutions for such waste.

In addition, the task force may provide participation grants to help environmental justice communities on issues relating to the storage and disposal of such waste.
