Participant Funding Program content updated
The Cluff Lake-specific participant funding notice was replaced by a general Participant Funding Program page. The new page now shows an open opportunity for Ontario Power Generation’s licence renewal for the Western Waste Management Facility with a maximum amount of $200,000 and an application period from March 25 to June 16, 2026, replacing the former Cluff Lake notice that showed funding up to $100,000 and a deadline of September 30, 2022. The updated program page also adds clearer guidance on who can apply, eligible expenses, how to apply, what happens after submission, and where to find the supporting eligibility, process, guide, and terms pages. The scope now centers on general CNSC participant funding opportunities rather than the former Cluff Lake revocation matter in Saskatchewan.
