The Canadian Nuclear Society is pleased to host the Conference on Management, Decommissioning and Environmental Restoration for Canada's Nuclear Activities that will be held September 11-14, 2011 at the Marriott Toronto Downtown Eaton Centre Hotel. The working language of the Conference is English. Two Post-Conference tours are also planned, see below for details.

The main objective of the Conference is to provide a forum for discussion and exchange of views on the technical, regulatory and social challenges and opportunities for radioactive waste management, nuclear facility decommissioning and environmental restoration activities in Canada. The three-day conference is organized into Plenary Sessions and six technical tracks that address low-and intermediate-level wastes, decommissioning, uranium mining and milling wastes, irradiated nuclear fuel management, environmental restoration, information management, social issues, policies and programs, and regulatory considerations.

The Final Program will include Abstracts of final papers as a guide to the contents of the presentations that will be made. Conference Proceedings will be published on a CD and mailed to participants following the Conference.
