Champagne continues fight against nuclear waste dump

6
The Champagne region is embroiled in a legal battle to prevent the French national atomic agency ANDRA from dumping nuclear waste near its vineyards. According to French press reports, the CIVC - Champagne's trade association - has asked the administrative court in Châlons-en-Champagne to cancel permission granted to ANDRA in August 2006 to continue storing low level radioactive waste at its facility in Soulaines. The site is located within 9km of Champagne's Côte des Bars.
