Radiation Safety Officers Handbook

October 2000

On May 31, 2000, the Atomic Energy Control Board became the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission. In this document, references to the Atomic Energy Control Board or to the AECB should be read — unless the context requires otherwise — as references to the Canadian Nuclear Safety commission (CNSC).

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC), and its predecessor the Atomic Energy Control Board, has made use of advisory committees of independent experts to assist it in its decision making process. The Commission has two senior level scientific committees charged with providing independent advice on principles, standards and general practices related to radiation protection and the safety of nuclear facilities. The two committees are the Advisory Committee on Nuclear Safety (ACNS) and the Advisory Committee on Radiation Protection (ACNS).

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission publishes many of the reports of its advisory committees. Publication by the CNSC does not imply endorsement of the content, nor acceptance of any recommendations made therein.
