Request a comprehensive transportation safety plan specifically for the eventual removal of LLW and ILW from the Revell site through Borups Corners.
Strategic Rationale
"While the Proponent's submission focuses on the arrival of used fuel, it acknowledges that LLW and ILW must eventually be moved to other facilities. This implies a second, distinct phase of radioactive waste transport through local intersections. The community requires a detailed analysis of truck volumes and safety protocols for these secondary waste streams to ensure that transportation risks are not underestimated. Establishing these requirements now ensures that the Proponent is held accountable for the entire lifecycle of the waste and that local road safety is prioritized throughout the decommissioning phase, leading to better long-term infrastructure planning for the township."

Understanding the Impacts of Nuclear Waste on our Community
This digital archive houses the public comments submitted to the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada regarding Project 88774: The Nuclear Waste Management Organization Deep Geological Repository (DGR) for Canada's Used Nuclear Fuel Project. The impact assessment is led jointly by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada and the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission. This archive preserves community perspectives, concerns, and observations shared during the assessment process, particularly in relation to Melgund Township, Northwestern Ontario and the communities of Dyment and Borups Corners who are the closest and most impacted of all in the process.
