Reducing other disturbances for the 2.2.2.2.3. local population DPEF.19 The measures to be taken to ensure the local population’s tranquillity are assessed and adopted during impact studies or additional impact studies whose content is defined by regulations. These studies assess the sensitivity of residential areas located in the immediate vicinity of the sites, using criteria as diverse as sound level, olfactory pollution and traffic flows. They are carried out under new facilities or renewed at each significant stage of development of a site (extension, new installation or new equipment), and are legally subject to public notice and the approval of the administrative authorities. As a result, about ten impact studies are conducted annually on the Group’s sites. In site compacting operations, all of these potential nuisances are systematically classified to determine the most appropriate measures to reduce their impact. Instances of discussions held at sites enabling local residents to feed back their comments in the event of any pollution. The nature of any grievances is taken into consideration in order to define and implement appropriate solutions. WASTE AND MATERIALS CYCLES: 2.2.2.3. PRODUCTION PROCESSES DESIGN TO REDUCE USE OF RESOURCES AND INCREASE WASTE RECOVERY Out of an eagerness to apply the concepts of responsible development advocated by the Group’s policy and to stay in line with a product strategy that promotes better recovery and recyclability for its vehicles, the Group’s industrial sites are committed to developing a circular economy wherever they are located. This expresses itself in the desire to avoid any wasting of natural resources and to use only the quantity of raw materials necessary. This strategy also extends into waste management, through the achievement of zero landfill waste and encouragement of recycling and recovery. Locally, the plants are examining potential opportunities to exchange resources and waste as part of industrial ecology experiments.
The above-mentioned data from brands and Faurecia was reported from the same proportion of sites as for indirect energy consumption (see 2.2.2.1.1.). Protecting the soil DPEF.18 DPEF.25 2.2.2.2.2. PCD Automotive Activities and Faurecia Strict procedures are applied to prevent soil pollution, in particular through the use of retention basins for liquid storage and limiting, to the extent possible, the use of underground pipelines for fluids transport and conducting checks and maintenance on the existing underground pipelines. In addition, it aims to discover what past pollution may be present in the soils of its sites. Either at the instigation of public authorities or at the Group’s initiative, soil contamination has been assessed at a large number of sites. After extensive investigations, some sites studied are being monitored. Depending on the site, these surveys were supported by a small number of one-time remediation or prevention programmes. PCD Automotive Trade Since 2016, the Group has chosen to carry out soil studies on the installations identified as potentially the most polluting at the time of sale or transfer. Particular attention is paid to all points of sale with underground structures. The objective is to ensure that the Group’s installations are perfectly well-maintained. In case of proven pollution, the Group implements an action plan to treat this pollution, in compliance with regulatory constraints. For France to date, we have a coverage rate of 77%. In France, as part of the Odas and Osmose programmes, dealers are made aware of the need to encourage their customers to give greater consideration to their impact on the environment, particularly when washing their vehicles at home.
