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, and then from October 28 to 30 in Bruce County (Kincardine and Port Elgin), Ontario.
