Three.il: Is12nd axperience nas sneun that we who are recpcn-cible for protection gf the lives of many citizens cannot be s atisfiad with assurances tnat' acci ents mere serious tnan tha esign-basis arenctcrrfble.

acciden Icasibility of evacuati n is dependent on time and dstance : nstraints.

How long wculc we have, in a most sericus accident, :: evacuate our pc;ulati,ns of varicus distance areas?

Hcw far mu_t we evacuate th:m, and aav. long must they be restrainec from returning to tne c:ntaminated area:-

s r1 ease previde assessments.ased en various scenaries cf sind and weather, in the geographic c:nditicns of San Gnofre area, in ne event of most sericus acticents, whether or not you c:nsider then crecible.
