The Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site New Brunswick Department of Justice and Public Safety New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization 30 June 2021 Foreword The Point Lepreau Nuclear Generating Station (PLNGS) has operated safely and efficiently for over 35 years. Since its construction, the emergency program at the PLNGS has been governed by two principle plans: a. the On-Site Plan – this document is specific to New Brunswick Power, and details procedures to be followed by plant staff involving an emergency confined to the facility, and not posing a danger to the public; and b. the Off-Site Plan – this is a Government of New Brunswick (GNB) document, held by the New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization (NBEMO). This plan details procedures to be followed for an emergency at PLNGS which would pose danger to the public, and thus would require a coordinated multi- agency response. This plan would require response activities from many GNB departments, as well as external supporting agencies. While the risk to life or the environment from an accidental major release of radionuclides, or other industrial accident, is remote, it is in the interest of the public to be prepared to respond, by having in place effective emergency plans to deal with such events. The Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site Emergency Plan contains the basic information, detailed responsibilities, and immediate actions required to safeguard the public and the environment. It contains the specific responses which will be carried out by various agencies to deal with the emergency. The Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site Emergency Plan will be reviewed and revised on a yearly basis to reflect changes in technology and assigned emergency management responsibilities. This plan will be implemented on the authority of the Director of the New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization. G.R. MacCallum Acting Director New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization Introduction The Point Lepreau Nuclear Generating Station (PLNGS) is a 680 MW CANDU pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR), designed by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL). CANDU stands for CANada Deuterium Uranium. The pressurized heavy water reactor uses natural uranium as its fuel source. PLNGS was the first CANDU-6 in Canada and abroad to be licensed for operation on 21 July 1982 and began commercial operation on 1 February 1983. PLNGS is the only nuclear facility in Atlantic Canada. PLNGS plays an integral role in helping NB Power achieve its mandate of providing electricity to the province of New Brunswick safely, reliably and at a reasonable cost. In emergency situations in New Brunswick, whether man-made or created by natural phenomena, response is provided for in the Provincial Emergency Measures Plan (Provincial All-Hazards Plan). Initially, operations are conducted by the Provincial Emergency Action Committee (PEAC), located at the headquarters of the New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization, supported by the Regional Emergency Action Committee (REAC), located in Saint John and St George. Under the NB Emergency Measures Act, municipalities are responsible for establishing their own emergency response plan but can call upon the REAC or PEAC for support when their own resources are not equal to the demands of the situation. In the specific case of PLNGS, the adjacent communities are not municipalities but are unincorporated areas; the province must therefore take an active role in the management of the local emergency response. This response is outlined in the Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site Emergency Plan. The Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site Emergency plan contains essential operational information, prepared by various government departments and agencies co-ordinated by the New Brunswick Emergency Measures Organization (NBEMO) describing the actions to fulfill a whole of government response in the unlikely event such as a radiation emergency at the PLNGS. The Canadian Standards Association (CSA Z1600-14 standard) has been used for simplicity and to enable members of the Nuclear Control Group to familiarize themselves quickly with the requirements of their department’s role, function, and those of other member agencies. While each government department and agency are required to perform its emergency duties independently, the Nuclear Control Group coordinates, under the direction of the Director, NBEMO. It is therefore imperative that information regarding individual agency activities be reported to the Nuclear Control Group so that problem areas can be anticipated, and remedial measures undertaken. Government departments and agencies must inform NBEMO of any necessary amendments to the contents of the Point Lepreau Nuclear Off-Site Emergency plan. Emergency Action Levels are the basis for PLNGS to conduct an assessment to determine the Emergency Class. PLNGS Standard Operating Procedures define the following Emergency Classes: 1. Radiation Alert; 2. Site Area Radiation Emergency; and 3. General Radiation Emergency; PLNGS Standard Operating Procedures define the following Non-Radiation Emergencies: a. Medical Emergency; b. Fire Emergency; and c. Chemical Emergency. PLNGS Standard Operating Procedures define the following Security Levels: Threat Level 1 – Active attacker inside the protected area, explosive confirmed inside the Protected Area, hostile takeover of Main Control Room, Secondary Control Room or Security Monitoring room, or potential aircraft impact in less than 60 minutes. Threat Level 2 – Confirmed security threat to station, suspicion of explosives device inside the Protected Area, active attacker inside the Controlled Area, or potential aircraft impact in 60 minutes or more. Threat Level 3 - Credible threat developing or bomb threat. Arrangements have been made by NB Power with municipalities and other agencies for such support. Because of the nature of the hazards presented by radioactive material, this plan establishes a Nuclear Control Group, hereafter known as the Control Group. The Nuclear Control Group comprises all the members of the PEAC and representatives of those other agencies with expertise or a role in a nuclear emergency response. The Nuclear Control Group will assume the control and direction of emergency operations in the event of a radiation emergency at the PLNGS, where there may be danger to the public. On the occurrence of an Alert or Emergency, the PLNGS Shift Supervisor is the first person in authority to know of it, and must decide what, or if any, emergency action is to be taken or outside assistance to be notified or requested. If outside assistance is needed, the Shift Supervisor will immediately call for it under the terms agreed to by the assisting agency and will take other appropriate action in accordance with the On-Site Emergency Plan (e.g. firefighting assistance from Saint John). The PLNGS Shift Supervisor is responsible to initiate notification of off-site authorities, whenever there is an actual or perceived threat to public safety.

This section provides an overview. 2.1 Overview of Canaport Energy East Marine Terminal Operations and Expanded Shipping Operations The proposed marine terminal will be located on the western shore of the Bay of Fundy, southeast of the City of Saint John and southwest of Mispec Point, New Brunswick. The marine terminal is proposed to be located adjacent to the two existing Canaport marine facilities: a single buoy mooring (SBM or mono- buoy) for offloading crude oil to the Irving Canaport facility, and the Canaport LNG terminal for import and now recently licensed for export of liquefied natural gas (Figure 1-1). The marine terminal will include pile-supported trestles and breasting/mooring dolphins for two berths that can accommodate Aframax and Suezmax tankers (Berth 2), as well as VLCC tanker types (Berth 1), with capacities of 113,300 to 348,000 m3 (710,000 to 2.2 million barrels). The two berths will be constructed simultaneously. Oil will be pumped from shore via a trestle approximately 645 m long. Berths 1 and 2 will be interconnected by a trestle approximately 380 m long. The marine terminal is expected to receive approximately 281 tanker calls per year for shipping of crude oil products originating from western Canada.

  • Point Lepreau Generating Station
    cAHoaWf -13- POINT LEPREAU GENERATING STATION BY G. H. D. GANONG/ A. E. STRANG, G. E. GUNTER, T. S. THOMPSON (N B POWER) CNA INTERNATIONAL CONFEBENCE OTTAWA JUNE 16-18, 1975 -14- ABSTRACT The incorporation of this large unit on N B Power's system has been made possible by innovative power system planning and necessary by the price and supply reliability of oil. Project management and the treatment of environmental impact and pub Iic.concern may indicate future patterns for nuclear energy i n Canada. I . INTRODUCTION In July, 1974 it was announced that a CANDU-600 MWe nuclear generating station would be built by N B Power at Point Lepreau on the Bay of Fundy about 24 miles south-west of Saint John. The station is scheduled to be in service in October 1979 and in commercial operation In 1980 to supply future needs for electrical energy in New Brunswick and to provide a measure of relief from dependency upon foreign oil. The introduction of a single 600 MWe unit on the New Brunswick grid offers the economy of size but during the first few years of operation it will present problems with reserve back-up due to its large size relative to other units on the N B system. In an effort to alleviate this problem, a proposal was made in 1973 to supply steam to an AECL owned heavy water plant which would be located on a site adjacent to the nucjear plant. An 800 ton/yr D_0 plant would have reduced the turbine-generator size by 168 MWe.
