The document Implementing Adaptive Phased Management 2011 to 2015 – DRAFT FOR REVIEW is our annual five-year strategic plan for implementing Canada’s plan for the safe, long-term care of used nuclear fuel. The NWMO invites all interested individuals and organizations to engage in our work and to review our plans and activities as we move forward.
The Plan provides an overview of the NWMO and Adaptive Phased Management. The Plan presents highlights of our work program in seven key areas. Activities are proposed in each area to support continued progress on this important national initiative.

Questionnaire for Implementing Adaptive Phased Management 2010 to 2014 - Draft for Review |
Implementing Adaptive Phased Management 2009 to 2013
In 2008, the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) published its first five-year plan describing how we will implement Adaptive Phased Management, Canada's plan for the safe long-term care of used nuclear fuel. The NWMO has now prepared Implementing Adaptive Phased Management 2009 to 2013, our annual update to the Plan.
The Plan provides an overview of the NWMO and Adaptive Phased Management and presents highlights of our objectives and directions for the planning period. It describes how we will continue to build a sustainable implementing organization and lead a robust technical and social research program. The Plan highlights the collaborative design of the process to guide decisions on where to contain and isolate Canada's used nuclear fuel for the long term, and underscores our commitment to engage Canadians meaningfully in all our activities.
The Plan is a living document that will be regularly assessed, strengthened and redirected in the face of new information, advances in technology and science, changes in societal values and evolving public policy. Our progress in 2009 will be described in the NWMO's Annual Report for 2009, to be published in March 2010.

Implementing Adaptive Phased Management 2008 to 2012
Following the Government of Canada’s selection of Adaptive Phased Management as the approach for the long-term care of used nuclear fuel, the NWMO has assumed a new mandate. We are now responsible for implementing the plan.
We intend to move forward in stages in an open, transparent and inclusive manner, taking the time that is necessary to collaboratively plan and then confirm each step before moving forward together.
As a starting point, the NWMO is working to prepare a plan to guide work over the near term. Like all of our endeavors, this is being done collaboratively and sequentially. We will move one step at a time, ensuring there is a firm foundation for each subsequent step in the process. We want to hear a diversity of voices as we seek advice and receive direction on the design of our processes and the issues to be explored.
Time has elapsed since the NWMO last met with interested individuals, organizations, Aboriginal people and citizens-at-large during preparation of our report to the Government. Now as we begin to assume our implementing role, we would like to invite you to help us take stock and to think through first steps.
As outlined in Choosing a Way Forward, detailed NWMO implementation plans will be designed through dialogue. To help launch the conversation we have prepared a brief concept paper, Preparing for Implementation. It outlines our strategic objectives and poses some questions which may be helpful in starting the dialogue.
