The Light Decontamination Unit carried out drills and manoeuvres at the facilities in Quart de Poblet (Valencia) to prepare for crisis situations.

The manoeuvres carried out at the Lainsa facilitie s, located in the Valencian municipality of Quart de Poblet, consisted of locating radioactive sources concealed in certain items of equipment, simulating illegal practices, measuring the existing contamination and subsequently decontaminating the equipment used.

The objective of these activities is to provide the NBQR Regiment – the country’s most important unit for defence against nuclear, biological and chemical attack – with the best possible technical training through the performance of innovative drills with a high degree of practical content.

The management of Lainsa has underlined its willingness to continue collaborating in the future in the practical training of the members of the Regiment.
