  1. Page, R.D. - Selected Works, by R.D. Page, AECL, 1950-01-01. Doc type: Essay.
    Summary: Ron Page (1925-2014). In 1958, Ron was posted on attachment to Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd.(AECL) at the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories from Orenda. In September 1959, he joined Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. to form Power Reactor Fuel Engineering. He was responsible for all the development of CANDU nuclear power reactor fuel. (NPD-2, Douglas Point, Indian RAPP I, Pickering A&B, Gentilly-1 BLW, Bruce A&B, Gentilly-2 600 MWe reactors). In 1970, he was transferred to AECL Engineering Co., Sheridan Park near Toronto, Ont. to form a new branch of Fuel Engineering. In 1980 he became the R & D program manager for all the combined AECL/Ontario Hydro R&D programs and later CANDU Owners Group (COG) R&D programs. He was a Associate Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society, a Professional Engineer of Ontario, a director of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society, a member of AECL CANDU Retirees Association, Federal Superannuates National Association and a member of CANDU Origins and Evolution working group. He retired in January 1987.

    Summary: The Canadian Nuclear Society / Societe Nucleaire Canadienne was born as the Technical Society of the Canadian Nuclear Association,' on 11 June 1979, at the Annual Business Meeting of the Canadian Nuclear Association. The Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS) was to be a learned society, with membership open to individuals. The CNS was to be distinct from the Canadian Nuclear Association (CNA) whose membership is composed primarily of industries and institutions, and thereby serves as an industrial forum.

    Summary: Canada's low-level radioactive wastes (LLW) have a wide range of physical forms and radionuc1ides, and are currently managed either by producers or by the Atomic Energy of Canada's Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories (CRNL), which operates a national collection and management service for small producers. The processing and storage methods are generally well established. Substantial research and development is in progress for a gradual transition to disposal methods, including a shallow land burial (SLB) demonstration facility at CRNL. With a federal policy that encourages producers to propose disposal methods, the stage is now set for a transition from the current interim methods to long-term methods of LLW management.

  7. Nuclear Journal of Canada, 1987 Vol 1 No. 3, by W.T. Hancox, CNS-, 1987-09-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This paper describes the Canadian concept for safe, permanent disposal of nuclear fuel waste deep in plutonic rock of the Canadian Shield. The ability of the disposal concept to isolate the wastes is then discussed in the light of laboratory and field research results. The methodlogy developed to characterize the hydrogeology of a plutonic rock mass is outlined and results obtained from its application to a field site are described. Also highlighted are the Canadian field research areas and the Underground Research Laboratory.

    Summary: This paper outlines the history and regulation of sea dumping of packaged low-level radioactive waste in the ocean. The procedures by which dumping limits are established and periodic safety evaluations conducted under international auspices are described. Particular reference is made to recent negotiations on the future of the practice within the London Dumping Convention and the role played by Canada in this forum, and in others relevant to this subject.

  9. Canada's Nuclear Achievement: Technical and Economic Perspectives, by T.E. Rummery and J.A. MacPherson, AECL, 1995-07-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: As published in the Canadian Nuclear Society Bulletin Vol. 16, No. 2, 1995 with the kind permission of the CNS: Canada's leading role and eminent accomplishments in nuclear development now span more than half a century. They encompass aspects as diverse as the design and sale of nuclear power reactors and research reactor technology, to the establishment of a corps of scientists, engineers and technologists with the expertise to address a wide scope of important nuclear science issues. To address the many facets of Canada's nuclear activities over the past 50 years would obviously require space far beyond that available in this paper. We have therefore limited this review to highlights we judge to be the most pertinent and interesting from an historical, technical and economic perspective. We also indicate briefly our view of the future of nuclear power in the overall context of energy needs in a world that is becoming more industrial and increasingly environmentally conscious.
