Financial guarantees for decommissioning of nuclear facilities and termination of licensed activities are implemented in accordance with the Nuclear Safety and Control Act (NSCA) and the regulations made under the NSCA. Applicants and licensees are required to make adequate provision for the safe decommissioning of existing or proposed new nuclear facilities by ensuring that sufficient financial resources are available to fund all approved decommissioning activities should the licensee not be able to fulfill its obligations. Operationally, the Commission may also require that financial resources be available for termination of licensed activities other than for decommissioning of nuclear facilities. This document provides requirements and guidance to applicants and licensees regarding the establishment and maintenance of funding for the decommissioning of facilities and termination of activities licensed by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC).
