regulatory framework proportional to facility risks and hazards technology-inclusive, performance based hazard analysis for contiguous facilities ingestion planning capabilities rather than defined ingestion planning zone scalable emergency planning zone (EPZ)

- 1. The planning distance is the EPZ
