Mme Sandrine Le Feur appelle l'attention de Mme la ministre déléguée auprès de la ministre de la transition écologique, de la biodiversité et des négociations internationales sur le climat et la nature, chargée de la mer et de la pêche, sur l'organisation de la manutention dans les ports de commerce. En application du premier alinéa de l'article L. 5343-7 du code des transports, dans les ports maritimes de commerce, pour les marchandises en provenance ou à destination de la voie maritime, les opérations de chargement et de déchargement des navires et des bateaux, y compris la mise et la reprise de ces marchandises sous hangar et sur terre-plein, qui en sont le préalable ou la suite nécessaire, sont effectuées prioritairement par des ouvriers dockers . Afin de garantir la sécurité des personnes et de biens, les ouvriers dockers disposent d'une priorité en matière de manutention, constituée de l'ensemble des opérations de chargement et de déchargement des navires marchands, dans les ports. Toutefois, par dérogation aux dispositions qui précèdent, peuvent être effectuées, sans avoir recours à la main-d'œuvre des ouvriers dockers , les opérations suivantes : déchargement ou chargement du matériel de bord des navires et des bateaux et avitaillement de ceux-ci, déchargement ou chargement des bateaux par les moyens du bord ou par le propriétaire de la marchandise au moyen des personnels de son entreprise, manutentions liées à un chantier de travaux publics sur le port considéré, reprise sur terre-pleins ou sous hangars et chargement sur wagons ou camions par le personnel du propriétaire de la marchandise, déchargement du poisson des navires et bateaux de pêche par l'équipage ou le personnel de l'armateur, déchargement ou chargement des produits liquides transportés par des navires ou bateaux pétroliers, chimiquiers et gaziers. Ces termes peuvent engendrer un flou juridique et des situations de tension dans les ports. En outre, il existerait une spécificité pour les bateaux fluviaux, destinés à la navigation intérieure, qui seraient seuls autorisés dans les ports maritimes ouverts au commerce international à procéder à la manutention par le propriétaire de la marchandise ou avec les moyens du bord, sans recours aux dockers et en dehors du cadre portuaire habituel. Pour les petits armateurs et en particulier la filière émergente et pionnière du transport de marchandises à la voile, l'agilité en matière de manutention relève d'un enjeu de compétitivité. Ils appellent à une application équilibrée du droit portuaire donnant plus de souplesse à leur modèle économique encore fragile. La définition de protocoles d'accords locaux pourrait être encouragée afin d'adapter la réglementation à l'évolution du commerce maritime vers des modèles d'armement décarbonés dont les réalités opérationnelles n'ont rien à avoir avec les grands armateurs de porte-conteneurs. Dans l'immédiat et dans un contexte de difficultés d'interprétation rencontrées sur le terrain, elle lui demande d'apporter une clarification quant au champ de dérogations prévues par la loi n° 2015-1592 et son décret n° 2016-951 du 11 juillet 2016 relatif à la manutention portuaire et d'apporter des éclaircissements en matière d'opérations qui peuvent être réalisées sans les dockers .

M. Aly Diouara appelle l'attention de Mme la ministre de la transition écologique, de la biodiversité et des négociations internationales sur le climat et la nature sur le projet d'implantation d'un centre de données sur l'ancien site de la halle Worthington au Bourget (93). La mission régionale de l'autorité environnementale (MRAe) d'Île-de-France a rendu, le 30 juin 2025, l'avis n° APJIF-2025-056 qui constitue un socle technique et juridique majeur. Cet avis identifie des insuffisances substantielles : mesures de qualité de l'air non représentatives (réalisées en période creuse), étude acoustique à reprendre en intégrant les scénarios de tests/urgences des groupes électrogènes, analyse de risques renforcée (groupes, cuves d'hydrocarbures, batteries lithium-ion), modélisation complète des champs électromagnétiques, ainsi que prise en compte rigoureuse des effets cumulés avec les installations et projets voisins. La MRAe souligne aussi que la récupération de « chaleur fatale » ne peut rester au stade des intentions et doit être encadrée par des engagements contractuels opposables, chiffrés à l'année et pas seulement en saison de chauffage. Au regard de ces éléments, il lui demande quelles suites le Gouvernement entend donner. D'abord, s'il exigera du maître d'ouvrage la production d'un mémoire en réponse intégralement conforme aux prescriptions de la MRAe et sa publication préalable à toute décision afin de garantir une participation éclairée du public. Ensuite, comment il garantira l'évaluation cumulative des impacts à une échelle supra-communale (Seine-Saint-Denis et communes limitrophes), compte tenu de la densité urbaine et de la présence d'établissements sensibles à proximité du site et quelles garanties procédurales seront apportées pour prolonger l'enquête publique si des pièces substantielles (mémoire en réponse, engagements contractuels de valorisation de chaleur, compléments d'études air/bruit/risques/CEM) sont déposées tardivement. Enfin, quels standards minimaux seront fixés pour les data centers : publication des calendriers de tests et des volumes/natures de carburants ; prévention Li-ion (références normatives et plans d'urgence) ; modélisation et publication des CEM sur toute la chaîne électrique et valorisation de chaleur annuelle opposable, y compris en été.
