According to Section 47 (7), with regard to the implementation of § 13 (3) (d) and § 7 and § 18 (1) (a) and (c) of Act No. 18 / 1997 Coll., on the Peaceful Use of Nuclear Energy and Ionising Radiation (Atomic Act), and amending and supplementing certain laws, hereinafter referred to as "the Act":
INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS
Subject matter
This Decree sets out the details for holders of authorisations pursuant to § 9 (1) (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (i), (j) and (m) of the Act to ensure emergency preparedness of nuclear installations and sites with ionising radiation sources (hereinafter referred to as "equipment or workplaces') and the requirements for the content of the internal emergency plan, for the content of emergency rules for the transport and transport of nuclear materials and radionuclide radios (hereinafter referred to as" transport ') and the scope and manner of their implementation. It also lays down requirements for the monitoring, measurement, evaluation, verification of quantities, parameters and facts relevant to emergency preparedness, including the keeping and storage of their records and the transmission of data to the Office of the State for Nuclear Security (the Office).
For the purposes of this decree:
(a) an exceptional event of importance in terms of nuclear safety or radiation protection which leads or may lead to the unacceptable release of radioactive substances or ionising radiation or, where appropriate, to a radiological accident or a radiation accident;
(b) intervention in the implementation of measures leading to:
1. limiting the causes of an incident;
2. prevention and reduction of emergency development;
3. prevention and reduction of radioactive leakage;
4. obtaining control of the source of ionising radiation;
5. the avoidance or limitation of exposure of persons in the event of an emergency.
DETAILS TO ENSURE THE HAVARIAN PREPARATION
Emergency preparedness
To ensure emergency preparedness, technical and organisational conditions are created for:
(a) detection of an incident;
(b) assessment of the seriousness of the incident;
(c) an emergency notice;
(d) activation of the interveners;
(e) management and implementation of intervention;
(f) preparation of staff, persons and verification of emergency preparedness.
Detection of an incident
The quantities, parameters and facts relevant for the occurrence of an incident are those that provide information
(a) the immediate state of the technology and systems of the equipment or work, the failure or damage of which may result in a breach of barriers intended to prevent the release of radioactive substances into the working and environment and the unacceptable exposure of persons;
(b) the immediate status of the radiation situation on the installation or at the workplace as specified in the monitoring programme;
(c) the release of radioactive substances into the premises of the authorisation holder and the environment;
(d) to predict the extent and extent of the leakage of radioactive substances and the exposure of persons in view of the expected development of an emergency.
Assessment of the severity of the incident
In order to assess the severity of incidents, such events, which may occur during the operation of equipment or workplaces and during transport, shall be broken down into three basic stages.
Level 1 - an emergency that leads or may lead to unacceptable exposure to workers and other persons (1) or to the unacceptable release of radioactive substances into the premises of the installation or the workplace; the first-degree event may be a radiation accident, has a limited local character and sufficient forces and means of operating or working shift are sufficient to address it, and there will be no release of radioactive substances into the environment during transport;
2. stage 2 - an emergency which leads or may lead to unacceptable serious exposure to workers and others or to the unacceptable release of radioactive substances into the environment which does not require the introduction of measures to protect the population and the environment; the 2nd degree event is a radiation accident, its solution requires activation of the intervening persons of the holder of the authorisation and sufficient force and means of the holder of the authorisation are sufficient to manage it, and, where appropriate, the forces and means contracted by the holder of the authorisation,
Level 3 - an emergency that leads or may lead to an unacceptable serious release of radioactive substances into the environment, requiring the introduction of urgent measures (1) to protect the population and the environment, as set out in the external emergency plan or in the district emergency plan; (2) the level 3 event is a radiation accident and its solution requires the involvement of other authorities concerned in addition to the activation of the intervening persons of the authorisation holder and the intervening persons of the external emergency plan or of the district emergency plan.
