The Property Value Protection(PVP) Program was launched in 2001 as an integral part of the Legal Agreement that led to the creation of the Port Hope Area Initiative(PHAI). It provides assurance to property owners that if activities arising from the Port Hope or Port Granby projects affect the value of their home or land, compensation is available. The Program includes special services to assist owners of properties that show evidence of project effects and an independent appeals process for claimants who wish to appeal their PVP compensation award. 1, record 4, English, - Property%20Value%20Protection%20Program

Le programme assure aux propriétaires un dédommagement si les activités découlant des projets de Port Hope et de Port Granby diminuent la valeur de leurs domiciles ou de leurs terrains. Le programme comprend des services spéciaux pour aider les propriétaires à prouver les effets des projets. Il comprend aussi un processus de recours indépendant qui permet d’en appeler du dédommagement accordé. 1, record 4, French, - Programme%20de%20protection%20de%20la%20valeur%20des%20biens%20immobiliers

From 2001 to 2008, the Port Hope and Port Granby projects were managed by the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Office(LLRWMO). In 2009, Natural Resources Canada, Atomic Energy of Canada Limited and Public Works and Government Services Canada formed the Port Hope Area Initiative Management Office to carry the projects through to completion. Beginning in 2011, construction of long-term waste management facilities will begin in Port Hope and Port Granby(eastern Clarington) to safely manage the waste for hundreds of years. This will be followed by the cleanup of the existing historic low-level radioactive waste found within each of these communities. In all, cleanup and construction are expected to take between six and eight years. 1, record 5, English, - Port%20Hope%20Area%20Initiative%20Management%20Office

Entre 2001 et 2008, le Bureau de gestion des déchets radioactifs de faible activité (BGDRFA) s’est occupé des projets de Port Hope et de Port Granby. En 2009, Ressources naturelles Canada, Énergie atomique du Canada limitée et Travaux publics et Services gouvernementaux Canada ont créé le Bureau de gestion de l’initiative de la région de Port Hope pour mener les projets à terme. Dès 2011, la construction des installations de gestion à long terme des déchets commencera à Port Hope et à Port Granby (partie est de Clarington) pour gérer les déchets de façon sécuritaire durant des centaines d’années. Une fois les installations construites, on procédera à l’assainissement des déchets historiques faiblement radioactifs trouvés dans chacune de ces agglomérations. En tout, les travaux de construction et l’assainissement devraient prendre entre six et huit ans. 1, record 5, French, - Bureau%20de%20gestion%20de%20l%26rsquo%3Binitiative%20de%20la%20r%C3%A9gion%20de%20Port%20Hope

Wastes at Port Granby are buried in pits which are excavated down to the water table... in the Upper Sand Complex. The site is not a "disposal" site since active management is required to control the release of contaminants. Ditches are located on the upslope side of the disposal pits to divert runoff and groundwater. In addition, seepage is collected downslope of the pits at the base of the bluffs bordering Lake Ontario and treated. 2, record 9, English, - burial%20pit
