Proposals to amend the Radiation Protection Regulations . : CC174-4/2013-1E-PDF

This paper describes the CNSC’s proposals to amend existing sections of the Radiation Protection Regulations, as well as to add two new sections outlining requirements for radiation detection and measurement instrumentation, and responsibility for radiation protection. These amendments would harmonize the Regulations with updated ICRP and IAEA guidance, where appropriate. They would also clarify requirements and address gaps that were identified post-Fukushima, as well as through lessons learned over time.
