Dignitaries celebrated a ground-breaking ceremony Thursday for the Western Clean-Energy Sorting and Recycling (WCSR) centre in Kincardine.

The new facility will be built at the Bruce Energy Centre industrial park in Kincardine, in 2022.

Ontario Power Generation (OPG) will operate this facility, sorting and segregating low-level materials from OPG’s nuclear operations, in order to support the three Rs – reduce, reuse, recycle.

The project is a collaboration among OPG, Laurentis Energy Partners and Dancor Construction. When completed, the facility will be 42,000 square feet and employ 25 people
