A simulated nuclear security exercise will be held on Thursday, November 12, and Friday, November 13, as part of the national emergency preparedness program.

As part of the national emergency preparedness program, a nuclear security exercise will take place on Thursday, November 12, and Friday, November 13. This entirely simulated exercise is part of a prevention and preparation effort to enhance the security of the territory.
On this occasion, residents within a 20 km radius of the power plant will receive two FR-Alert notifications: one on Thursday morning announcing the start of the exercise, and another around noon on Friday signaling its end.
Please note that this is solely a drill, with no real danger to the public. The messages received on your phones may seem alarming, but they are part of this simulation. The lessons learned will help improve population protection measures.
