Rates for Instrumentation Usage

Ongoing operations of the Facility are funded in part by CFI and NSERC. Some of the costs associated with operating the facility will be covered through user fees. It should be understood that the implemented user fees cover only a fraction of the total costs of operation.

For the interim period the Steering Committee has adopted a simplified flat-rate user fees structure:

Canadian academic users                     $CA 100 per day
Government, non-Canadian academic     $CA 300 per day
Industry                                           $CA 2000 per day
Technical assistance/operator              $CA 50 per hour

The minimum charge is per one full day (24 hrs). Hourly rate is available for industrial clients ($CA 100 per hour). Priority/off-schedule access for service-for-fee clients is charged at double the normal rate (subject to the instrument time availability). The user fees cover use of the Facility, including magnet, console, probes and MAS rotors.
