Extended ambient air sampling for beryllium in Peterborough. : CC172-252/2023E-PDF

"The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) carried out extended ambient air sampling for beryllium in Peterborough, Ontario, during July, August and September 2022. This report outlines the sampling methods and results, as well as the related conclusions and recommendations. The sampling campaign was in response to concerns about beryllium emissions from the BWXT Nuclear Energy Canada (BWXT-NEC) Peterborough facility. At meetings and webinars with community members (e.g., BWXT Peterborough Community Liaison Committee), the CNSC heard that the community wanted extended ambient air monitoring for beryllium, in order to verify that beryllium levels in air are protective of human health and the environment around the facility. Extended ambient air monitoring would also help alleviate concerns about the safety of breathing the air around the facility and increase public trust in existing monitoring (conducted by both BWXT-NEC and the CNSC as part of its Independent Environmental Monitoring Program (IEMP))"--Overview, page 2.
