Les cahiers de l'ASN #04 - DECOMMISSIONING CHALLENGES

For several years now, the Local Information Committees (CLIs) and the National Association of Local Information Committees and Commissions (Anccli) have been closely monitoring decommissioning (two White Papers were produced in 2017 and 2021). In these works, the question of the continuity of the monitoring performed by the CLIs is addressed, including the preservation of memory over several generations. To preserve this memory, the CLIs and the Anccli propose creating a National Committee for the archival of their works. The CLIs and the Anccli also expressed the need: n to consolidate their roles •  They wish to be better informed and more closely involved, on the occasion of updates to the decommissioning plan and during the decommissioning operations. •  ASN recently suggested to the CLIs and the Anccli that they help with the drafting of ASN’s “Decommissioning Plan” guide, intended for the licensees. The joint desire is to have the CLIs involved throughout the decommissioning process. n to guarantee public participation • The shutdown of nuclear reactors will entail generic aspects in the decommissioning operations. The CLIs and the Anccli are asking that a participative process be created, on the one hand concerning the generic aspects of the decommissioning of the reactors of the same family and, on the other, concerning the management of the very low level waste resulting from decommissioning. • The CLIs and the Anccli will also be vigilant with respect to compliance with the regulations and to the conditions for any changes to the schedules (for example, the decommissioning of the GCR reactors). n to ensure that decommissioning is possible • The CLIs and the Anccli recall that securing the financing and human resources is a key condition for the success of the decommissioning operations and the processing of the resulting waste.
