Further Info] Counter-terrorist measures have long been an important part of overall security at nuclear power stations. Following the suicide terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11, 2001, however, the public has become understandably concerned about all aspects of national security – particularly, that of perceived “high-risk” targets such as electrical grids and power plants, water treatment facilities, chemical plants, communication hubs, and transportation systems. In response to the tragic events of September 2001, security was increased to maximum at nuclear facilities in North America and around the world. In Canada, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) ordered additional measures to increase security at all Canadian nuclear plants, following a review of two studies previously commissione
