The Canadian Radiocommunications Information and Notification Service is an offering of CRINS-SINRC Corporation - a not-for-profit corporation owned and operated by Land Use Authorities (LUAs).
The wireless industry nor the federal government have any ownership stake in CRINS-SINRC Corporation to assure the public of its neutrality and commitment to transparent discourse.
Proponents pay an application fee, as dictated by the Land Use Authority, for each proposed site application submitted through CRINS-SINRC to recover the costs of processing the application and managing communications with the public. There are no fees paid to CRINS-SINRC as a result of any specific outcome regarding the application.
CRINS-SINRC, from time to time, may take advantage of funding programs available through federal, provincial and regional initiatives to offset its operating costs.
