The overall goal of this project is to compile and assess the decommissioning processes and plans for nuclear power plants located within the Great Lakes basin to identify potential threats to the Great Lakes environment (water, air, and land), the status of the regulatory regime, and best practices around the world. On this basis the WQB will recommend to the IJC any actions that the governments need to take to eliminate or reduce threats to the Great Lakes from the release of radioactive contaminants as a result of decommissioning. The work carried out will be binational, considering both the U.S. and Canadian portions of the Great Lakes basin.
