Express unconditional opposition to Canada's proposed Great Lakes shoreline radioactive waste dump by Sept. 1 public comment deadline!

Canada's federal Environment Minister, Leona Aglukkaq, has provided one last round of public comment opportunity regarding Ontario Power Generation's (OPG) proposal to bury radioactive wastes on the Lake Huron shore at the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station in Kincardine, Ontario.

It is important to send your comments to the Federal Minister of the Environment Leona Aglukkaq by the Tuesday, September 1st deadline.

Express "unconditional opposition" to the DGR proposal (DGR is short for Deep Geologic Respository).

Be sure to include "Docket #17520" at the top of your comments, so that they can be directed to the proper place (OPG's DGR EA docket -- EA is short for Environmental Assessment).

You can email your comments to ceaa.conditions.acee@ceaa-acee.gc.ca.

You can snail mail your comments to: National Programs, Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, 22nd Floor, 160 Elgin St., Ottawa ON K1A 0H3 (just be sure to get it postmarked by the Sept. 1st deadline).

And here is another way to express your opposition to this dump by the Sept. 1st deadline, an idea from our friends and colleagues at Stop the Great Lakes Nuclear Dump:

Download this poster. Print it. Fill in the blanks. Take a selfie. Post it on Facebook. Post it on Twitter. And email it to Environment Minister Leona Aglukkaq at: Leona.Aglukkaq@parl.gc.ca.
