    The discrimination power of the NTD ionization-heat detectors to distinguish nuclear recoils from electron recoils is affected by events interpreted as surface events. On the basis of the data from EDELWEISS I and first data taking of EDELWEISS-2, we present a coherent interpretation and direct evidence that surface events occur and are due to radon daughter deposition on detector surface and close-by surfaces. The estimation of the surface activities of contaminated surface are extracted from the new data taking.
