Trust Funds
The Nuclear Fuel Waste Act requires nuclear fuel waste producers to establish trust funds to finance the long term management of nuclear fuel waste. In accordance with the legislation, Ontario Power Generation, Hydro-Québec, NB Power Nuclear Corporation and AECL established trust funds in 2002 and began making annual contributions to those funds as prescribed by the NFWA.
In April 2009, the Honourable Lisa Raitt, Minister of Natural Resources, approved a funding formula which was proposed by the NWMO, as required by the NFWA, in its first Annual Report (2007)following the government’s selection of a management approach. The Minister’s letter approving the funding formula is posted here:
