aDeDe, specialised company, was appointed to search
and expose eventual present airplane bombs on the
industrial district of Total, Rieme. Since 2004
people are busy removing the old acid tar lagoons.
The chance on finding unexploded bombs during these
works is real. The district and the environment were
heavily bombed during WW2.
Part aDeDe
1. Before the start of the works:
- Doing
historical research of the company district and
environment.
- Making risk analysis and safety and environment
plans.

research)
2. During the works of rationalization:
The acid tar is removed from the lagoons and
processed at place. The polluted soil is scraped off
layer per layer afterwards. Previously every layer
is detected by an expert of explosives. The gathered
detectiondate is processed through software,
compared with each other and projected on plan to
define the exact position of the detected objects.

safety distance, ways of protection
The objects are approached and digged out under
supervision of the eod-expert since August 21 2006.
aDeDe is taking the necessary arrangements (safetyplans,
risk analysis, placement of protection means,
continues observation,...) to let the works pss
through safe and reduce the risks to the acceptable.
At exposure of an UXO, Dovo will be informed
immediately. Dovo defines which extra
arrangements will be necessary to protect the
environment.
On december 4th 2006 there's a previously detected
bomb exposed.
