CONT

Drainage des déchets habituellement non radioactifs. Bien que les eaux rejetées soient peu ou pas radioactives, elles sont collectées avant d'être évacuées afin de pouvoir les traiter, en cas de contamination. La plupart de ces eaux s'écoulent des siphons de plancher de l'édifice du réacteur, de la décharge de la buanderie ainsi que, dans le laboratoire, des éviers et des siphons de plancher non raccordés au drainage des produits radioactifs.
