REGDOC-2.6.1, Reliability Programs for Nuclear Power Plants, sets out the requirements and guidance of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) for the development and implementation of a reliability program for a nuclear power plant (NPP) in Canada. The reliability program assures that the systems important to safety (SIS) shall meet their defined design, and performance criteria at acceptable levels of reliability throughout the lifetime of the facility.

"As Canada’s nuclear regulator, the CNSC reviews the environmental protection measures put in place for every facility we regulate. The Environmental Protection Review report series offers a summary of CNSC staff’s technical assessment of how effectively licensees are protecting human health and the environment in the communities in which they are operating. The purpose of the report is to share CNSC staff’s findings from the review of BWXT Nuclear Energy Canada Inc. environmental protection measures for the Environmental Protection Review Report: BWXT Nuclear Energy Canada Inc. Toronto and Peterborough Facilities. This includes any possible environmental releases as part of normal operations, and the risk of radiological or hazardous substances posed to the environment and human health. "
