  • 1. Atomic Energy Control Board, Ottawa, ON (Canada)

Description

The Canadian Government is revising the nuclear regulatory agency's Act and supporting regulations and is expected to put them into force late in 1998. This Act will change the Atomic Energy Control Board's name to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission [CNSC). The revised regulations made by the CNSC will continue to follow the recommendations of the IAEA for transportation of radioactive materials and will adopt the radiological exposure limits in ICRP 60.
