Bruce Power in Tiverton is going to appeal a fine from the Ministry of Environment.
Officials at the Bruce nuclear station say they will appeal a 25 thousand dollar penalty from the Ministry of Environment.
The fine stems from an incident in January.
The provincial Ministry served Bruce Power with the order “for a sodium hypoclorite that caused a fish kill at the Bruce B generating station.”
The MOE claims hundreds of large game fish were killed.
Bruce Power claims it was an accidental release — and they notified both the Ministry of Environment and Ministry of Health after the incident.
Bruce Power also contends the release occurred in an area of the plant where water quality in the lake was not impaired and regulatory limits were not exceeded.
