Participant funding notice

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) will conduct a hearing based on written submissions to consider a licence amendment application from Bruce Power to allow the production of lutetium-177 (Lu-177) at the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station (NGS). The Bruce NGS is located in the municipality of Kincardine on the eastern shore of Lake Huron in Ontario.

The CNSC is offering participant funding to assist Indigenous peoples, members of the public, and stakeholders in reviewing Bruce Power’s application and associated documents, and in participating in the Commission hearing process by providing topic-specific written interventions to the Commission. 

Up to $50,000 in participant funding will be disbursed among all eligible applicants for the provision of new, distinctive and valuable information through informed and topic-specific interventions to the Commission. Funding will be awarded to review documentation, including CNSC staff’s documents and Bruce Power’s Commission member documents, and to submit a written intervention to the Commission.
