Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA)
Hiroshima and Nagasaki are not covered by RECA. Additionally, the Act does not cover members of the military who occupied those cities or who may have been held in those areas as Prisoners of War. Congress determined that the atmospheric atomic detonations that occurred at Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end World War II are not part of RECA and limited the Act’s coverage to the atmospheric nuclear testing program conducted by the United States that followed the war. Also, the Act only provides compensation for an individual who has contracted a covered cancer following their exposure. Please note that neither skin cancer or prostate cancer are designated as compensable.

RECA establishes lump sum compensation awards for individuals who contracted specified diseases in three defined populations: 1. Uranium miners, millers, and ore transporters – $100,0002. “Onsite participants” at atmospheric nuclear weapons tests – $75,0003. Individuals who lived downwind of the Nevada Test Site (“downwinders") – $50,000
