(Receive for Information)
1 - 4 Linda Keen, President and Chief Executive Officer, Canadian Nuclear
Safety Commission, writing to Council regarding the establishment of a
"no fly" zone as well as a marine perimeter into Lake Ontario in the vicinity
of the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station. In regards to "no fly" zones,
there are restrictions in place for a minimum 1000 ft. aircraft ceiling over
any built up area including the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station.
After considerable discussion with Transport Canada, it was determined
that the establishment of a "no fly" zone specifically for nuclear facilities
would not be workable or practicable. There is an airspace control
arrangement in place between the Department of National Defence and
Nav Canada that permits the establishment of airspace restrictions around
major cities and vital points, including Darlington Nuclear Generating
Station, in emergency situations. This arrangement would be invoked
should there be an imminent threat. In regards to marine security, a
number of security upgrades have been completed to enhance security in
this area. These upgrades will continue over the coming year.
