La vie d’un stockage de surface se décompose en trois phases successives : d’abord la phase d’exploitation, celle du fonctionnement du centre, phase dont la durée est fonction de la capacité totale du site et du rythme des livraisons; puis la phase de surveillance, réglementairement limitée par la règle fondamentale de sûreté [...] à un maximum de 300 ans après la fin de l'exploitation, et pendant laquelle la fonction de barrière assurée par le conditionnement et les structures du stockage est contrôlée, de manière à garantir l'isolement des déchets; au-delà de la phase de surveillance, la phase de banalisation : le site doit pouvoir être remis dans le domaine public sans aucune contrainte d’utilisation. 4, record 1, French, - stockage%20en%20surface
