1l* Regulatory Fromm?work
r
Canada's deep geological repository for used nuclear fuel will be subject
to a thorough and comprehensive regulatory review process that includes
an environmental assessment and a licensing review to ensure that it is
implemented in a manner that protects people and the environment, now
and in the future. The selected site, and the design, construction, operation
and decommissioning (closure) of the facility, will need to meet or exceed all
regulatory requirements.
Q. How will the project be regulated at the federal level?
A. Canada has a robust legislative and regulatory framework that makes
provisions to oversee the implementation of this important national
infrastructure project. The project will be subject to thorough and
comprehensive review processes covering the entire life cycle of the
repository and associated facilities. The regulatory review by the Canadian
Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) during different phases of the project
will ensure that the project will be implemented in a manner that protects
people and the environment. Security of the repository and activities such
as transportation, handling and storage of used fuel will also be part of this
review process.
The management of used nuclear fuel in Canada is governed by the
Government of Canada's policy on nuclear waste, as reflected in the Nuclear
Fuel Waste Act (NFWA) that gives the NWMO the mandate to implement
Adaptive Phased Management. The Government of Canada, through Natural
Resources Canada, oversees the NWMO to ensure compliance with the
NFWA, including that the project is fully funded and that socio-economic
effects are properly managed.
Q. What is the role of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission?
A. The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) is mandated under
the Nuclear Safety and Control Act to ensure protection of the health, safety
and security of Canadians, to protect the environment, and to implement
Canada's international commitments on the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
The CNSC regulates all nuclear facilities and nuclear -related activities in
Canada, including a deep geological repository facility for used nuclear fuel.
In conjunction with the CNSC, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
monitors Canada's used nuclear fuel facilities to verify that they comply with
Canada's obligations under the Canada/IAEA Safeguards Agreements.
Q. What about the environmental assessment?
A. A deep geological repository will require a comprehensive environmental
assessment that will cover the entire life cycle of the repository, including post -
closure. It will be completed under the Canadian Environmental Assessment
Act (CEAA) to predict, evaluate and manage the environmental impacts,
and to determine whether these impacts can be mitigated. Some aspects of
transportation may also need to be assessed under the CEAA.
Q. When will the formal regulatory review process begin?
A. The formal regulatory review process will be initiated once a licence
application is submitted to the CNSC. Over the eight-year period (or more)
of site assessments, learning may increase. and expectations and best
practices may evolve. The NWMO will seek regulatory guidance throughout
the siting process to ensure that regulatory requirements, expectations and
best practices inform the site assessment activities.
