Naussac: the demonstrations

In fact the dam was designedto regulate the river Loire, through the river Allier so as to provide water to irrigate the fields and also for the nuclear plants.
But numerous opponents demonstrated against it. They put forward ecological, economical and anti-nuclear arguments.
