Earthquakes and radon
Seismic zone
Zone 1 of 5: very low. This regulatory zoning, in force since 2011, sets the rules for earthquake-resistant construction.
Radon potential
Category 1 of 3: low potential. The geological formations have the lowest uranium content. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can build up in poorly ventilated rooms.
