¨ȒǼǼɖɎƺƳ ɀǣɎƺɀ ƏȇƳ ɀȒǣǼɀ ƏȇƳ ȅǣȇǣȇǕ ɀǣɎƺɀ Pollution by radium-226 was revealed when earthworks were carried out on land belonging to the city of Bordeaux (wet docks sector). On a proposal from ASN, the Prefectoral Order of 1 June 2015 required the city of Bordeaux to carry out an in-depth study to characterise the origin and extent of the pollution and propose remediation solutions. After analysing the information provided by the city of Bordeaux, ASN proposed to the Prefect of Gironde an order setting the perimeter and conditions of the intervention, the remediation objectives and the public information measures. The order was signed on 14 June 2019 and the depollution work was carried out during the summer. During an inspection of the depollution worksite in July 2019, ASN verified compliance with the measures prescribed in the order concerning the conduct of the excavations and the removal of the contaminated rubble, and the regulatory requirements for the radiation protection of workers. ASN will decide in 2020, after an expert assessment by IRSN, whether the remediation objectives for the site have been achieved. 80 ASN Report on the state of nuclear safety and radiation protection in France in 2019 REGIONAL OVERVIEWOF NUCLEAR SAFETY AND RADIATION PROTECTION z…Èà0nn0 ٳ ªÈXÁ Xz0
