Latest change: The participant funding opportunity page now shows a closed Bruce Power hearing opportunity instead of the earlier 2021 CNL regulatory oversight report notice.
Participant funding opportunity updated to Bruce Power hearing
The participant funding opportunity page now describes a closed Bruce Power application for changes to the lutetium-177 production process at the Bruce A and B nuclear generating stations, with a hearing based on written submissions in July 2026 and no funding applications received. The earlier notice for the Regulatory Oversight Report for Canadian Nuclear Laboratories Sites: 2020, including the July 5 to August 6, 2021 application window and the November 24 and 25, 2021 public meeting, is no longer shown on the page. The supporting resources page also no longer lists the sample recipient survey and sample consent letter resources that were previously part of the application package, which affects the application materials available to applicants.
