The Tricastin nuclear power station, operated by EDF, stands

FRANCE - JULY 21: The Tricastin nuclear power station, operated by EDF, stands near the Areva-owned Socatri waste treatment center near Bollene, France, on Friday, July 18, 2008. On July 8, the town's 14,000 inhabitants, who have lived in the shadow of one of France's oldest nuclear power plants for almost 30 years, were barred from fishing and ordered not to use tap water. That came about 13 hours after Areva discovered a uranium waste leak and after health authorities tested the groundwater, which some experts now say may have also been poisoned by a stock of military nuclear waste stored illegally years ago. The incidents are shaking the French's long-acquired faith in the nuclear safety of their country, the world's second-biggest generator of nuclear power after the United States.
