Clean up project in Port Hope

The Port Hope Area Initiative (PHAI) represents the Government of Canada’s commitment to respond to the community driven request for the cleanup and local, long-term, safe management of the historic low-level radioactive waste in the municipalities of Port Hope and Clarington.

The Port Hope Project involves the construction of a long-term waste management facility and supporting infrastructure for the safe, long-term management of approximately 1.2 million cubic metres of historic low-level radioactive waste, cleanup of the waste from various sites in Port Hope and its transportation to the facility, and long-term maintenance and monitoring.

Environmental Remediation staff

Staff in the Works and Engineering department, Environmental Remediation division, help to facilitate the project and liaise with PHAI staff. Environmental Remediation staff provide necessary contractor permitting for project activities and coordination efforts between PHAI activities and MPH planned scopes of work.

Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) Contractors 

As part of the project, the Municipality established Standard Operating Procedures and Guidelines (SOPs/SOGs). The SOPs/ SOGs document exists to assist contractors, the PHAI, and the Municipality through implementation of the project. 

CNL approved contractors who require necessary municipal permits to complete PHAI work are requested to contact the Works and Engineering department by email.  Contractors may request copy of the SOP/SOGs, receive a permit application form, and submit permit applications.
