Safety Series No.32 Planning for the Hendling of Radiation Accidents

---

public authorities and others who are responsible for preparing emergency plans for the handling of radiation accidents with the aim of minimizing the resulting exposure of workers and of m embers of the public, and of reducing as far as , practicable any damage to property. This guidance m ust necessarily be of a general nature as it is not possible to predict with any precision the form which an accident will take or the consequences which may result.

The scope of the manual is restricted to those topics that are directly related to the preparation of the emergency plans. Where possible, any background inform ation that is necessary is provided by reference to other publications. Where this is not possible, explanatory material is provided to enable the reader to relate the presentation to his particular circumstances.

The m anual provides an outline of plans that should be prepared before any operation with radiation sources begins so that adequate
procedures can be followed if an accident should occur. Attention is directed primarily to land-based facilities and radiation sources that are transported on land, and is focussed on major accidents such as those that may occur in nuclear reactor plants and nuclear fuel reprocessing plants. General guidance is provided however, which can be applied to other types of facilities such as ships operated by nuclear power, sea-based isotopic power generators and radiation sources transported on water or in the air. Plans for handling on-site accidents may also be required for small facilities in which relatively low-activity radiation sources are used. Situations of this type are not considered in detail as it is very unlikely that such accidents could give rise to off-site problem s for which special emergency planning would be required.
A number of specimen emergency plans provided by the panel members are included in the Annex. These examples have not been discussed by the panel and are presented merely as examples of existing plans.
