1 ATOMS FOR THE FUTURE October 22 nd 25 th 2012 ANCCLI National Association of Commitees and Commission of Information A national network to discuss about transparency and nuclear safety 1

2 Governance and transparency 2 In the context of the governance of nuclear activities, especially in the field of the safety and the radioactive waste management, the self-structuring of civil society is a necessary condition of the citizens action. The experience of French Local Commissions of Information (CLIs) and their national federation the (ANCCLI) represent an interesting and original example of local actors empowerment.

3 Governance and transparency A progressive structuring of the civil society. 3 The first CLI was created in Fessenheim in 1977 In 1981, the act of the Prime Minister known as Circulaire Mauroy opened the way to the official creation of CLIs in the vicinity of nuclear installations by Regional Councils The 2006 Law on transparency and security in the nuclear field included provisions on the organisation, role and funding of the CLIs and reinforced the legal basis of their missions The TSN law confirm the existence of a national federation - ANCCLI 2012 : 38 CLIs exist in France 36 of them are members of the ANCCLI

4 Local Commissions of Information.(CLI) Represent a diversity of contexts and experiences that sheds light on the issue of the contribution of local actors to safety and protection of people and the environment around nuclear sites 4 Pluralistic dialogue forums gathering various types of local actors (elected representatives, NGOs, local experts, trade unions and other local organisations) Facilitate dialogue of local actors with public authorities and operators They address a variety of issues linked to the safety of the nuclear site and its impacts

5 ANCCLI Nationale Association of Local Information Commissions? 5 In order to fulfil their missions, the CLIs may need to exchange information or to be represented at the national level, so in 2000 the ANCCLI is created to : Favour exchanges of experience and sharing of information between CLIs Define a representation of all the CLIs Establish relations with national (ministries, ASN, HCTISN, IRSN ) and international organisations Offer logistic support to the CLIs Organise various pedagogic initiatives for the CLIs (visit of sites, formations...)

6 ATOMS FOR THE FUTURE October 22 nd 25 th THE CLIs Local Commissions of Information Before : role of information s relay Now : a model of monitoring to involve in decison process

7 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 7 The mission of information of the CLIs seems clear but is nonetheless complex or ambivalent : What is the source of the information? What is the content of this or that piece of information? What is its use? To whom should it be diffuse? The operator and the Nuclear Safety Authority are the first source of information of the CLIs (complemented by other sources of information) The CLIs pay attention to a wide variety of issues: respect of the norms (composition of the discharges, temperature of the discharged water...) periodic inspections, environmental monitoring, discharge and take authorisations, risk factors, technical innovation (e.g. the EPR), changes in the workforce, the equipment or the methods

8 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 8 Inspection with ASN Samples of water on piezometer Analysis by independant laboratory (intercomparison ASN EDF and CLI results)

9 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 9 MOX authorization file Questions and opinions of the CLI were given to investigating commissioner

10 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 10 In CLIs meeting Presentation of the reports of the operator and of the regulator

11 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 11 Organization of various meeting

12 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities 12 Crisis exercice Members of the CLI as observers

13 The CLIs want s to be an autonomous actor in the field of the monitoring of nuclear facilities Competence building and access to expertise are conditions that are essential for effective participation of society actors in the instruction of files upstream of the decisions 13 CLI, citizen instruction for an involvement in the decision process. CLIs need to build a citizen instruction on technical files with two major purposes : to understand the issues and feed them with questions asked by society to effectively question the sponsors of technical files and influence the decisions

14 ATOMS FOR THE FUTURE October 22 nd 25 th THE ANCCLI National Association of the Local Commissions of Information Gathering pluralistic expression and citizen expertise of the CLI for an autonomous opinion of the civil society in the field of the nuclear activities

15 ANCLI : federating means and competences to inform and investigate 15 The CLIs are primarily local organisations. Their missions of information and monitoring concern a particular facility and directed towards local populations. However, in order to fulfil their missions, the CLIs may need to exchange information or to be represented at the national level 2000 : The National Association of the CLIs is create and be made by the Presidents of the CLIs 2005 : ANCCLI structures its memberships into 4 colleges corresponding of the pluralistic categories of CLI members 2006 : in compliance with the TSN law ANCLI become ANCCLI (inclusion of the Committee of information around military nuclear activities)

16 ANCLI : pooling resources in order to raise and investigat issues 16 The ANCCLI : Favouring competence building and access to expertise Gathering the CLI to issues of common interest for them Favouring access to external (private or public) expertise resources or help for the development of inner expertise capacities Capitalises knowledge and expertise and thus strengthens the position of the CLIs.

17 White papers about the role of the CLIs and ANCCLI in the governance system 17 In 2005, while the Law on nuclear transparency and safety was in the process of being finalised, the CLIs made the lawmaker aware of their 25-years experience and of their expectations under the form of a White Paper on local governance of nuclear sites so that is could be taken into account into the new law. In 2006, ANCLI issued a second White Paper on radioactive materials and waste and local communities Both White Papers were drafted by working groups composed of members from different CLIs. The White Papers outline shared directions for the CLIs and put forward their experience and their ambitions for the future to their institutional interlocutors.

18 The Scientific Committee of ANCCLI 18 The Scientific Committee structure the knowledge and competences of the CLIs : Advises and assists the CLIs and ANCCLI in their expertises and scientific investigations Favours the development of reflections and exchanges within the CLIs and promotes conferences and debates Plays an advisory role for the drafting of the publications of the CLIs and ANCCLI The Scientific Committee can be seized by ANCCLI or by the CLIs It gathers diversified competences concerning nuclear issues, from hydrogeology to physics, as well as social sciences or epidemiology

19 Permanent working groups 19 Working groups to takes up sensitive and topical issues which any CLI is likely to be confronted with : radioactive waste, new reactors, postaccident issues, decommissioning The objective of these working groups is to answer complex citizen questionings which necessitate integrating scientific, technical, social, or even ethical dimensions of the issues considered For this, the permanent working groups acquire by themselves the necessary competences, appropriate knowledges, initiate debates and more generally favour the development of questionings about the issue they investigate To date, three permanent working groups were created on radioactive waste and materials, Safety, and territories and post-accident issues.

20 Some examples of Gathering pluralistic expression 20 SAFETY - Pluralistic approach of expression on Complementary Evaluations of Safety - ECS True depth reading by CLI and ANCCLI of the ECS reports - Technical dialogue organized in partnership with IRSN Reviews and recommendations submitted to the ASN Monitoring the requirements imposed to operators In Europe: participation in the process of European Stress Tests - Peer Review

21 Some examples of Gathering pluralistic expression 21 Environnement and Health CLIs build general knowledge and own reflexion with a long terme vision Publication of a guide (ANCCLI / IRSN / InVS) "Public Health in the vicinity of nuclear facilities : how to deal with questions» Santé publique à proximité des installations nucléaires : Comment aborder les questions posées Janvier and 2012: Information on childhood leukemia 2009: seminar with IRSN on the environmental monitoring at the territorial level November 2012 in connection with the IRSN, seminar on Environment and Health : allow the CLI to appropriate environmental issues and health and giving them the tools to launch studies, encourage questions...

22 Some examples of Gathering pluralistic expression Creating a WG "Post-Accident» where CLI and ANCCLI sharing their questioning on urbanization, crisis, urgency plan, risk synergy nuclear / chemical Post Accident Awareness of the consequences of a radiological accident ANCCLI and IRSN develop a awareness tool on post-accident issues for Local Actors : helping them to take ownership of the consequences of a radiological accident Participation in the CODIRPA (ASN) (Management Steering Committee on Post-Accidental situation) N O T E T E C H N I Q U E CODIR-PA : présentation de deux scénarios d accident affectant une centrale nucléaire française DEI/SARG/ DEI/SESUC/07-53 DIRECTION DE L ENVIRONNEMENT ET DE L INTERVENTION Service d'analyse des risques liés à la géosphère Service des situations d urgence et d organisation de crise

23 Essential partnership based on reciprocal trust 23 ASN Regular meetings with the ASN Annual meeting with the Chairman and Commissioners of the ASN Presence in many WG and EWG : PNGMDR, CODIRPA, radiation, iodine, tritium, FSOH, urbanization, GPRAD,... ANCCLI co-organizer with ASN of the National Conference of CLI IRSN Monitoring Committee ANCCLI / IRSN since 2005 Many events organized together (ECS, HAVL, Childhood leukemia...)

25 CLI and ANCCLI a recognized participatory governance model in Europe 25 Since 2009, the ANCCLI initiate a European process of consultation and cooperation around the application of the Aarhus Convention (CAN) in the field of the nuclear activity The experience of European Stress Tests on Nuclear Safety has demonstrated the relevance of the contribution of civil society to continuous improvement and strengthening of the safety nuclear installations A statement echoed by many European NGOs involved in daily monitoring of european nuclear activities which emphasize the specificity of participatory governance model provided by the CLI and ANCCLI in France In this perspective, ANCCLI initiate an opening consultation for structuring an European civil society organization to enhance the transparency of nuclear activities Nuclear Transparency Watch - NTW

26 CONCLUSIONS 26 The CLI and ANCCLI respect the pluralism of their members and their opinions Relay of the questions of CLIs Relay of the information Building a capacity of expertise of the civil society Facilitate the growing citizen competence Mutual trust engaged in life with partners Ensure in the future that this mutual trust could also be effective with the operators
