Bruce Power is planning to host a number of community information sessions to allow residents to learn more about its proposed Bruce C project.

Bruce C is a proposed expansion to add a third nuclear generating station at Bruce Power’s Tiverton site, which would add about 4,800 megawatts of nuclear capacity.

The Bruce C nuclear project is in the regulatory review phase. It is currently being looked at by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada.

“The Bruce Power site already is one of the largest producers of nuclear energy in the world, providing approximately 30 per cent of Ontario’s clean electricity, and a new nuclear build on the existing site would help meet rising electricity demand, drive the economy and provide well-paying jobs in the area for decades to come,” the company says in a news release.

Next month is your chance to learn more and ask questions about the Bruce C project. The company is hosting public information sessions in Goderich, Owen Sound and Walkerton. Each event will start with a presentation, and then there will be an opportunity for community members to speak with company representatives involved with the Bruce C project.

Tuesday, Nov. 4 – Goderich – Columbus Convention Centre – 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Thursday, Nov. 6 – Owen Sound – Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre, Shore Room – 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
