Operations started around 3 p.m. A section of the wall was torn off by a bulldozer in front of the eyes of a few curious people and the burgomaster. In total, around forty damaged homes must be destroyed over the next few weeks, demolitions that will ultimately be taken care of by insurers. The list of these had been drawn up on September 10 by the municipality of Pepinster on the basis of stability reports submitted by the experts and following two meetings held with the insurers concerned.
The first one had approached on September 2 the legal questions related to these demolitions of buildings become unstable. The second, which took place on September 8, dealt with technical and organizational aspects. It was then that Philippe Godin, mayor of the municipality of Pepinster, issued the demolition order defining the buildings to be brought down.
These demolitions mainly concern three streets: rue Hubert Halet , rue du Duc and Pont Walrand. With regard to rue Massau, additional exploratory studies of the reach must still be undertaken by the insurance companies in order to ensure the stability of the foundations of the buildings.
