This paper presents a verification benchmark of the TRIPOLI-4DARWIN-PEPIN2 sequence for performing radiological characterization of reactors in decommissioning phase. Computed activities were compared with measured activities included in the JPDR experimental program. A good agreement was found with a variability of about more or less 30percent. The current benchmark exercise successfully validates the general computational procedure.
