(f) by the unacceptable release of radioactive substances or ionising radiation - such release of radioactive substances or ionising radiation as would result in workers or other persons or individuals from the general population being or may be exposed to doses exceeding the prescribed exposure limits or authorised limits 3b) as laid down in the relevant authorisation of the Office.
DETAILS TO ENSURE THE HAVARIAN PREPARATION
Emergency preparedness
(1) In order to ensure emergency preparedness, technical and organisational conditions are established for:
(a) detection of an incident;
(b) assessment of the seriousness of the incident;
(c) an emergency notice;
(d) management and implementation of intervention;
(e) ways of reducing the exposure of workers and others;
(f) preparation of staff and other persons;
(g) verification of emergency preparedness.
(2) Emergency preparedness is documented by the Office approved by the internal emergency plan, except in cases provided for in specific legislation4a) and by intervention instructions.
(3) In the case of transport, emergency preparedness shall be documented by drawing up the emergency rules in accordance with Section 16 and the intervention instructions in accordance with Section 12.
Detection of an incident
The values, parameters and facts relevant to the occurrence of an incident are those that provide important information
(a) the immediate state of the technology and systems of the nuclear installation or work, or the immediate state of the packaging and means of transport, 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 state of the radiation situation on the nuclear installation or at the workplace under the monitoring programme, 10) or the immediate state of the radiation situation around the packaging and means of transport during transport;
(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.
Emergency classification steps
In order to assess the severity of the incidents, the following events, which may occur when performing radiation activity on a nuclear installation or workplace and when transporting, shall be classified into three basic degrees:
(a) an emergency which leads or may lead to unacceptable exposure to workers and other persons or to the unacceptable release of radioactive substances into the premises of a nuclear installation or workplace of a limited, local nature and the resolution of which is sufficient strength and means of service or shift and the release of radioactive substances into the environment will not occur during transport;
(b) a second step classifies an emergency that leads or may lead to unacceptable serious exposure to workers and other persons or to the unacceptable release of radioactive substances into the environment which does not require the introduction of urgent measures (10) to protect the population and the environment, its solution requires the activation of the intervening persons of the authorisation holder and sufficient force and means of the authorisation holder, and, where appropriate, the strength and means contracted by the authorisation holder;
(c) a third step classifies an emergency that leads or may lead to an unacceptable serious release of radioactive substances into the environment, requiring the introduction of urgent measures (10) to protect the population and the environment, as set out in the external emergency plan and the regional emergency plan. 12a) The third-degree event is a radiation accident (13) and its solution requires the involvement of other authorities concerned, in addition to activating the intervening persons of the authorisation holder and intervening persons of the external emergency plan or of the regional emergency plan.
