Lake Ontario Waterkeeper Response to Bruce Power Application for a Licence to Ship Radioactive Steam Generators on the Great Lakes

Lake Ontario Waterkeeper [LOW] is writing in response to Bruce Power’s application for a licence to ship 16 decommissioned steam generators from its plant on Lake Huron to Sweden via the Great Lakes. LOW has serious substantive and procedural concerns regarding this proposal. We recommend that this decision be made by the Commission itself, and ask that the Commission hold a comprehensive public hearing on the matter before rendering a decision regarding Bruce Power’s application. We submit that an Environmental Assessment is required for this proposal and should be carried out before a licensing decision is rendered.
