Nuclear Regulation
Main Article Content
Abstract
The Canadian nuclear regulatory approach is based on a relatively small number of fundamental principles, a somewhat larger number of governing criteria and a vast amount of practical knowledge and experience all of which have evolved over the past four decades. The approach was developed to its present state by many persons in a multidisciplinary approach to achieving the widest contribution of the peaceful uses of atomic energy to national and international prosperity. The engineering profession was one of many involved in
this evolutionary development and thus it is not surprising that the Canadian nuclear regulatory approach includes in its totality the duty-to-the-public objectives of the profession.
Theoretical, experimental and applied scientists, design, development, manufacturing, construction and operations engineers, professors of engineering, engineers employed by municipal, provincial and federal government departments and agencies and consul ting engineers have all been involved together with members of a broad range of other professions, technical vocations and skilled trades in building the mosaic which is tile Canadian nuclear regulatory approach.
