This regulatory document sets out the requirements of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) for deterministic safety analysis for nuclear power plants (NPPs) and small reactor facilities.

This regulatory document sets out the requirements of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) with regard to maintenance programs for nuclear power plants (NPPs). This document also provides information and guidance on how the requirements may be met. When incorporated into a licence or other legally enforceable instrument, this regulatory document becomes a legal requirement.

REGDOC-2.13.1, Safeguards and Nuclear Material Accountancy, sets out CNSC requirements and guidance for the establishment and maintenance of a safeguards program.

This regulatory document consolidates the requirements and guidance of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) for reports and, notifications to and the filing of specific records with the CNSC by licensees of nuclear power plants (NPPs), as well as the applicable time frames for reporting. Licensees are required to report to or notify the CNSC of situations, events, or dangerous occurrences that may require short-term action by the CNSC. They are also required to submit or file other reports, notifications or specific records, including routine scheduled reports on various topics such as certain normal business activities that are required for action by the CNSC, or that are required for longer-term compliance monitoring.

This regulatory document sets out requirements and guidance for reports and notifications that licensees of waste nuclear substances, Class II nuclear facilities and users of prescribed equipment, nuclear substances and radiation devices must submit to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC). This document also presents the types of reports and the applicable timeframe for reporting. Licensees and those who transport nuclear substances are required to report to the CNSC regarding situations, events and dangerous occurrences. Regulatory document REGDOC-3.1.3 incorporates and clarifies requirements found in the Nuclear Safety and Control Act (NSCA) and regulations made under the NSCA, including requirements for content and timing of reports. Additionally, it provides guidance on the interpretation and scope of application of these requirements in the context of Class II nuclear facilities, nuclear substances and radiation devicesand waste nuclear substance licensees. Further to the reporting requirements set by the NSCA and the regulations, a licence may contain any term or condition that identifies a reporting requirement and the time frame for submitting the report. This document provides guidance on these licence conditions, including the submission of an annual compliance report (ACR).

This regulatory document sets out the requirements of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) for the design of new water-cooled nuclear power plants. It establishes a set of comprehensive design requirements and guidance that are risk-informed and align with accepted national and international codes and practices.

REGDOC-2.10.1, Nuclear Emergency Preparedness and Response, sets out the emergency preparedness requirements and guidance of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) related to the development of emergency measures for licensees and licence applicants of Class I nuclear facilities and uranium mines and mills.

Part A of regulatory document REGDOC-2.12.3, Security of Nuclear Substances: Sealed Sources and Category I, II and III Nuclear Material, Version 2, sets out the minimum security measures that licensees must implement to prevent the loss, sabotage, illegal use, illegal possession or illegal removal of sealed sources during their entire lifecycle, including while they are in storage or transport, or being stored during transportation. If third-party carriers are used to transport radioactive material, this document also sets out the minimum security measures that a licensee must ensure a carrier of sealed sources complies with while the sealed sources are in transport or being stored during transportation.Part B of this document sets out guidance to help applicants prepare and submit the security information to be included with an application for a licence in respect of Category I or II nuclear material or a nuclear facility. It also provides guidance for applicants to prepare a “written transportation security plan” with respect to a licence to transport Category I, II or III nuclear material.
