L’Andra [Agence nationale pour la gestion des déchets radioactifs] exploite un laboratoire de recherche souterrain sur la commune de Bure, à la limite entre les départements de la Meuse et de la Haute-Marne. Ce laboratoire permet de caractériser une zone géologique qui s’étend sur 250 km². Les recherches menées depuis 1992 ont abouti, en 2005, à la remise d’un dossier concluant à la faisabilité de principe du stockage dans une couche argileuse (Callovo-Oxfordien) dans cette zone. C’est donc en son sein que l’implantation des installations souterraines d’un centre de stockage est étudiée. 1, record 1, French, - laboratoire%20de%20recherche%20souterrain
