To bring additional awareness and information related to nuclear power and the proposed Peace River Nuclear Power Project, the County of Northern Lights would like to share resources and information available through the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO).
The NWMO is a not-for-profit organization tasked with the safe, long-term management of Canada's used nuclear fuel, in a manner that protects people and the environment for generations to come. (Sourced from the NWMO website)
Documents and reports from the NWMO are available on the Documents and Reports page under 'Backgrounders and Brochures'.
Some of the available documents include information related to
- Transportation of used nuclear fuel, titled Safe and Secure Transportation of Canada's Used Nuclear Fuel
- Safety factors of nuclear sites, titled Safety is Everything
- Canada's Used Nuclear Fuel Backgrounder, which includes information related to CANDU nuclear
The County encourages residents and the general public to visit the NWMO website and check out all the information on the documents and reports page.
