The Le Havre reprocessing plant

As far as the physical environment is concerned, the construction plans respected the ancestral surroundings as much as could be done. Thus many areas were protected by administrative decisions, particularly regarding the maritime boundary where all around the plant the coast has maintained a traditional aspect. 

All seemed in place for social life to follow its course and to go along normally in La Hague. In the presence, or in the economic shadow of the plants, hidden in a moor that reminds one of the Irish coasts, we will also observe the close social relationships at play that developed there (Fig. 100.5).
