NUCL 5510G – Nuclear Safety Design and Regulation
Term Project
Winter Term - 2024
Professor: J. P. S. Froats, P. Eng.
Graded against a total of 15 marks Project Goals
1.
To apply the ability to find relevant regulatory requirements.
2.
To apply a systematic approach to design an approach that is compliant with regulatory requirements
Project
The University (Ontario Tech) has a Class 2 licence for its current nuclear activities. As part of its growth activity, it has decided to acquire particle accelerator under 50 MeV to expand its nuclear capabilities.
Your term project is to examine the CNSC Regulations for a < 50MeV particle accelerator and write a report outlining the following:
1.
What regulatory requirements apply
2.
What kind of public consultation (if any) is required?
3.
Does the particle accelerator need a separate licence or can the current licence be ammended.
4.
Given your answer to point 3 above, what would the steps be to get the new particle accelerator licenced?
Project Guidance
A good project deliverable would:
1.
Use the nuclear design approach a.
Clearly define what you are doing (problem statement, scope)
b.
Identify any assumptions you make in a `traceability matrix format.
c.
Establish a clear set of requirements (based on your research of regulatory requirements
d.
Propose what a regulatory compliant program might look like
e.
Provide a summation conclusion based on your work that summarizes your conclusions (are the requirements clear, is there certainty that if a plan like yours was executed regulatory requirements would be met, is the length of time and effort required clear, or any other comments you would like to draw to the attention of the Mayor and Council.
2.
Demonstrate an understanding of the regulatory requirements in this area in Canada
3.
Be written in a professional manner at a level that is aligned with the audience and the task.
4.
Have all references cited correctly.
NOTE: Submissions are expected to be individual but collaborative effort in encouraged – as long as any collaborations are acknowledged and cited.
