This video is part of a selection of presentations made at the joint review panel public hearings for the proposed Ontario Power Generation's (OPG) Deep Geologic Repository (DGR) project. The DGR project proposes a solution to the long-term management of low- and intermediate- level radioactive waste, by placing it in a storage space excavated in half-a-billion year-old sedimentary rock. The three-member panel conducted the hearing to assess OPG's environmental impact statement and application for a licence to prepare a site and construct the proposed DGR. The hearings ran from September 16 to October 12, 2013 and then from October 28 to 30, 2013 in Bruce County (Kincardine and Port Elgin), Ontario. Additional hearings were also held from September 9-18, 2014 in Kincardine, Ontario.
