Pour compléter les activités existantes et continues de vérification de la conformité, la Commission canadienne sécurité nucléaire (CCSN) a mis en œuvre un Programme indépendant de surveillance environnementale (PISE) dans le but de vérifier de manière indépendante que le public et l'environnement se trouvant à proximité des installations nucléaires réglementées par la CCSN ne subissent pas d'incidences négatives provenant des rejets dans l'environnement. Pour ce faire, la CCSN recourt à un processus indépendant d'échantillonnage et d'analyse.

The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases (to air, water and land), disposals and transfers for recycling. The file contains facility-specific data reported to the NPRI listed by media of release and by disposal and transfer. Facilities are categorized by industrial sector and total reported quantities. The data are for the most recent reporting year.
