An Ouest-France report leads with 150 million euros for concreting the embankments of a centre for older radioactive waste at La Hague. It describes an uneven hill under grass, on a former marsh, beside the Orano plant.
Julien Recarte, director of the site for Andra, the national agency for radioactive waste management, recalls that this was France’s first disposal facility for low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste and that it operated from 1969 to 1994. A caption calls the site the first industrial installation in France for the disposal of radioactive waste.
The facility has received no waste since a cover was completed in 1997, the article says. The text also refers to a public meeting on Tuesday 6 October 2026.
The sum is tied to concreting embankments at a disposal facility that has taken no radioactive waste since its cover was completed.
