The University has a Class 2 licence for its current nuclear activities. As part of its growth activity, it has decided to acquire particle accelerator under 50 MeV to expand its nuclear capabilities.

Your project is to examine the CNSC Regulations for a < 50MeV particle accelerator and this report may outlining the following:

1. What regulatory requirements apply
2. What kind of public consultation (if any) is required?
3. Does the particle accelerator need a separate licence or can the current licence be ammended.
4. Given your answer to point 3 above, what would the steps be to get the new particle accelerator licenced?
