Nordion Licence Renewal Hearing

As a Class 1B nuclear substance processing facility, Nordion is renewing our operating licence through the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC). In May 2024, Nordion submitted an application for a licence renewal for our Ottawa facility, for a period of 25 years. This facility has been safely manufacturing Cobalt-60 sealed sources used for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease for over 50 years. Over that time, Nordion has implemented and continuously improved our facilities, equipment, and programs to protect the health and safety of people and the environment.

Nordion’s public hearing is scheduled for June 4-5, 2025.
