The County of Renfrew is supporting Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) as the company looks to build a Near Surface Disposal Facility in Deep River. A petition is available on the House of Commons website with signatures accepted until June 27th, 2022. All elected officials attending the County Council meeting on March 30th, 2022, voted in favour of the Warden signing the petition of support for the Near Surface Disposal Facility. County Council has also agreed to intervene in support of the project during the public meetings in May.
CNL is also looking for feedback regarding the Nuclear Power Demonstration (NPD) Closure Project. You can register for the NPD environmental assessment follow-up monitoring program workshops online here. The first workshop is planned April 12th from 1:30pm to 3:00pm and covers Environmental and Effluent Verification Monitoring Program. The second workshop takes place April 14th from 1:30pm to 3:00pm for the groundwater monitoring program.
