REGULATORY DOCUENTS The legal framework within which the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) operates includes the Nuclear Safety and Control Act (Act), its Regulations and other legal instruments such as licences, certificates and orders. The legal framework is supported by regulatory documents issued by the CNSC, the main classes of which are: Regulatory Policy (P): a document that describes the philosophy, principles or fundamental factors that underlie the CNSC s approach to its regulatory mission. It provides direction to CNSC staff and information to stakeholders. Regulatory Standard (S): a document that describes CNSC requirements. It imposes obligations on the regulated party, once it is referenced in a licence or other legally enforceable instrument. Regulatory Guide (G): a document that indicates acceptable ways of meeting CNSC requirements, as expressed in the Act, Regulations, regulatory standard or other legallyenforceable instrument. It provides guidance to licensees and other stakeholders. Regulatory Notice (N): a document that provides licensees and other stakeholders with information about significant matters that warrant timely action.

The information is provided through the inclusion in the Guides of facsimiles of the worksheets that CNSC inspectors use to capture and document the results of their respective inspections. 3.0 DEFINITION A Type I inspection means all verification activities related to on-site audits and evaluations of a licensee s programs, processes and practices. 4.0 RELEVANT LEGISLATION The facsimiles of the inspection worksheets for the licensed activities or radiation devices reference, for each listed element of the respective Type I inspection, the relevant provision of the Act, the regulations or various licence conditions. 5.0 DISCLAIER CNSC licensees may use these worksheets voluntarily to ascertain the CNSC s general expectations regarding regulatory requirements. Such requirements would generally be assessed during a Type I inspection of licences issued pursuant to the Nuclear Substances and Radiation Devices Regulations. The expectations listed for each regulatory requirement are only provided as a guide. Similar worksheets will be used by CNSC staff for inspections. Inspections, will, however, be carried out on a case-by-case basis in the context of the licensed activities and the circumstances of individual situations. These worksheets are not intended to limit the scope of CNSC inspections or the powers of CNSC inspectors. Licensees should contact the CNSC to obtain information regarding their specific regulatory requirements.
