Measurements and Sampling of Radioactive Waste
Greenpeace takes radioactive samples near the Cogema outflow pipe and takes them to the police. Greenpeace divers discovered that Cogema's so-called cleaning operation had, in fact resulted in an enormous nuclear mess at the end of the pipe. Underwater films show that Cogema has built an infrastructure of pipes and barrels underwater, a small industrial site on the seabed. Cogema has been trying to cover up the real impact of its operations and to remove the nuclear debris from the seafloor. Cogema has taken radioactive waste from around the waste discharge pipe and left it on the seabed, just 250 metre off the public beach where the pipe enters the sea. Greenpeace divers found two nuclear waste drums, a filtration chamber and pipes.
