COMMISSION OPINION
of 16 June 2023
relating to the modified plan for the disposal of radioactive waste arising from the dismantling of the Brennilis B-NPS nuclear power station in the Finistre Department, FranceOnly the French text is authentic 2023/C 218/01
The assessment below is carried out under the provisions of the Euratom Treaty, without prejudice to any additional assessments to be carried out under the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the obligations stemming from it and from secondary legislation 1.
On 22 June 2022, the European Commission received from the Government of France, in accordance with Article 37 of the Euratom Treaty, the General Data relating to the modified plan for the disposal of radioactive waste 2 arising from the dismantling of the Brennilis nuclear power station.
On the basis of these data and additional information requested by the Commission on 19 October 2022 and provided by the French authorities on 9 February 2023, and following consultation with the Group of Experts, the Commission has drawn up the following opinion:
1. The distance from the site to the nearest border of another Member State, in this case Ireland, is 468 km.
2. The modified plan involves an increase of the authorised discharge limits for airborne radioactive effluents. No liquid radioactive effluents are authorised.
3. During normal dismantling operations, the discharge of gaseous radioactive effluents is not liable to cause an exposure of the population in another Member State that would be significant from the point of view of health, in respect of the dose limits laid down in the Basic Safety Standards Directive 3.
1 For instance, under the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, environmental aspects should be further assessed.
Indicatively, the Commission would like to draw attention to the provisions of Directive 2011/92/EU on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment, as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU; to Directive 2001/42/EC on the assessment of the effects of certain plans and programmes on the environment, as well as to Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora and to Directive 2000/60/EC establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy.
