The Nuclear Waste Management Organization plans to select a site in 2024.
Over the course of a decade, communities throughout northwestern Ontario have been asking important questions about Canada’s plan for the safe, long-term management of used nuclear fuel in a deep geological repository. Answering them is one of the most rewarding parts of our work.
In 2010, when the NWMO asked communities across Canada if they were interested in learning more about the potential of hosting a deep geological repository, 22 communities put up their hands, and Ignace was the first. We've only ever considered areas where a community proactively expressed an interest in learning about the project and exploring the potential to host it.
Canada’s plan reflects the values and priorities that Canadians and Indigenous peoples identified through a three-year dialogue before site selection began. From the beginning, the NWMO has committed that the project will only move forward with informed and willing hosts. Selecting an appropriate site for the project means choosing a location for the repository that is safe for people and the environment, where there has been active community education and engagement through open and transparent dialogue.
