EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND EXCLUSION ZONE REQUIREMENTS FOR INDIAN NPPs S.S.BAJAJ AERB-USNRC DISCUSSION MEET, WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 2004
PROTECTION OF PUBLIC IN EVENT OF MAJOR ACCIDENTS IN NPPs, PROVIDED THROUGH:
- ZONING AROUND NPPs
- PREPAREDNESS FOR EMERGENCY COUNTERMEASURES IN PUBLIC DOMAIN
ZONES:
- EXCLUSION ZONE : 1.5KM/1.6 KM
- `STERILIZED ZONE : 5 KM (CONTROLLED POPULATION ZONE)
- EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONE : 16KM
ü PRIMARY : 8KM (16 SECTORS)
ü SECONDARY : 16 KM
- ENVIRONMENTAL SURVEY ZONE : 30 KM
REQUIRMENTS FOR EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AERB GUIDE AERB/SG/EP-1, EP-2
- PLANS TO BE IN PLACE BEFORE NPP OPERATION IS LICENSED.
- CATEGORIES OF EMERGENCIES:
ü EMERGENCY ALERT
ü PLANT EMERGENCY : TYPE A,B
ü SITE EMERGENCY
ü OFF-SITE EMERGENCY -PLAN 1, PLAN 2, PLAN 3
- OFFSITE EMERGENCY HANDLED BY STATE AUTHORITIES WITH TECHNICAL INPUT FROM OPERATING ORGANISATION
OBJECTIVES OF EMERGENCY INTERVENTION FORM, SCALE AND DURATION OF INTERVENTION SHOULD BE OPTIMISED:
- AVOID SERIOUS NON-STOCHASTIC EFFECTS (DOSE<THRESHOLD)
- LIMIT STOCHASTIC RISKS (NET POSITIVE BENEFIT TO INDIVIDUAL)
- LIMIT OVERALL INCIDENCE OF STOCHASTIC EFFECTS (COLLECTIVE DOSE -ALARA)
INTERVENTION LEVELS (IL) FOR COUNTERMEASURES DEFINED FOR THREE SPACE-TIME DOMAINS:
(DOMAINS OF DECREASING ORDER OF RADIOLOGICAL SEVERITY)
DIST NEAR FIELD INT. FIELD FAR FIELD TIME (A1) (A3) (A3)
EARLY PHASE D1 (B1)
INT. PHASE D2 (B2)
LATE PHASE D3 (B3)

USE OF INTERVENTION LEVELS
- IF ASSESSED RELEASE AND MEASUREMENTS CONFIRM THAT LOWER IL IN A DOMAIN IS NOT LIKELY TO BE EXCEEDED, THE RELEVANT COUNTERMEASURE MAY NOT BE INITIATED.
- IF LOWER IL IS LIKELY TO BE EXCEEDED, INITIATE &
COMPLETE THE COUNTERMEASURE SUCH THAT UPPER IL IS NOT EXCEEDED.
