Why has Greenpeace made a submission to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) ?
On Wednesday May 14 the CNSC is holding a hearing on Ontario Power Generation’s (OPG) proposal to renew its licence for the Pickering B nuclear station for five more years. Greenpeace is concerned that the accident risks at the station are increasing because of ageing, deteriorating reactor components and the recent disclosure that previous safety studies are no longer valid. Greenpeace is asking the CNSC to more strictly control the ageing Pickering reactors during the last years of its operational life.
