5 ABOUT AFAD NATIONAL AND LOCAL LEVEL DISASTER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Provincial Disaster and Emergency Management Centers (DEMC) Structure 81 province Administrative Staff Technical Staff Operational Staff 81 Provincial DEMC & 11 Research and Rescue Unit Finance Central Authority Local Authority Duties Disaster and emergency management at local level Engineering Activities Search and rescue activities Coordination between institutions

6 How we define nuclear or radiological emergencies?

7 Nuclear threats: Arise from the energy released by nuclear material (uranium, plutonium, etc.) disintegration (fission) or fusion (fusion) of two atoms. Destructive pressure wave, lethal radiation and high heat. HAZARD The energy resulting from a nuclear chain reaction or from the decay of the products of a chain reaction Radiation exposure Radiological events: People are exposed to radiation or radioactive material for a certain reason. i.e. Accidents, lost or stolen radioactive sources, fire or earthquake during transportation or usage of radiation sources. TO RESPONSE, WE NEED HIGHLY SPECIALIZED AGENCIES AND TECHNICAL EXPERTS.

8 What is the role of in nuclear or radiological emergency management? Before During Preparedness Planning Awareness Rising Capacity Building Response Coodination of related inst. response units communication with public managing resources at national level CULTURE OF RISK MANAGEMENT «Be aware of risks and get prepared to mitigate the losses» After Recovery Coodination of related inst. Financial support communication with public

9 is the National Emergency Management and Coordination Authority Regulations Turkish Atomic Energy Authority I. Disaster and Emergency Response Services Regulation II. Regulation of Duties on Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Hazards III. National Implementation Regulation on Nuclear and Radiological Hazard Situations

10 is the National Emergency Management and Coordination Authority Plans Turkish Atomic Energy Authority Turkish Disaster Response Plan (National Level - TAMP) CBRN Response Plan National Radiation Emergency Plan (URAP)

11 BEFORE Planning Awareness Rising Capacity Building AFAD&TAEK DURING Coodination of related inst. & response units Communication with public Resource Management at national level AFAD&TAEK EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AFTER Coodination of related inst. Financial support Communication with public AFAD&TAEK : Coordination of national resources and efforts to deal with the situation, management of mass actions such as evacuation, minor detection capabilities with small first responder teams. Technical support to managers & first responders, major detection and identification capabilities, safe transport & disposal of radiactive materials

12 TAMP Service Groups

13 Emergencies URAP Classification of Emergencies Measures General Emergency Site Area Emergency In site and off site urgent measures Urgent Protective Actions are applied to mitigate the situation in site and to protect the people in site and off site emergency planning zones and distances. Urgent Measures in site area Off site monitoring is performed and samples are taken. Facility Emergency Other Emergencies Alert Urgent Measures in facility Facility Emergency does not cause danger outside the site boundaries. Precautions are taken in site in order to mitigate the consequences and to protect nearby communities (public, employees and emergency workers). It is determined where protective actions and other intervention actions should be carried out for "where" and "who". Forecasting and alleviating the consequences of losing time with the announcement of a warning situation; on-site and off-site intervention.

14 Class: Other Incase of an accident caused by lost/stolen radioactive source

15 AFAD (Provincial) AFAD TAEK CBRN response teams at 81 provinces First arrival to the scene Give information to Emergency Management Center of AFAD & TAEK First Responder Actions Public/Responders safety - AFAD Security concerns - Police Medical response Health proff. AFAD - Emergency Management Center Set communication line with TAEK Evaluation of situation with TAEK Provide tech support, required equipment and personel Technical Support Technical expert teams at Ankara - İstanbul TAEK - Emergency Management Center Technical Experts at Scene Safe removal of the source Safe transport of the source to the research centers Experts Team MINISTRY OF HEALTH Medical treatment for radiation exposure

16 Class: General Emergency One of the important branch of the planning for severe accidents in NPPs: Evacuation

17 EVACUATION SERVICE GROUP - TAMP This plan aims to define the roles and responsibilities of institutions and organizations in response to disasters and emergency situations and to identify the evacuation routes to be carried out by this Service Group and its crews before, during and after the disaster, the areas to be evacuated and the ones to be evacuated by setting the evacuation priorities, planning their transport and settlement has been determined in coordination with stakeholders.

18 Defining emergency Classification of emergencies Determination of required resources Getting ready Planning for Evacuation Do we need more?

19 Evacuation Time Estimation (ETE) Analysis for severe accidents in NPPs Purposes Providing data to decision makers and emergency management planners Identification of the public profile and environment in the evacuation zone Examining the effects of traffic management and developing effective traffic management methods Determination of factors with negative effects on evacuation time

20 What is critical for evacuation time estimation? The population and road capacity in the risk area should be based on the verified and reliable data. Sensitivity to changes in population and road capacity data should be determined in analyzes. It should assess the effect of the traffic management applications.

21 Why do we need ETE analysis? SEVERE ACCIDENT IN NPP IS A NATIONAL LEVEL EMERGENCY (4TH LEVEL) IN TAMP EVACUATION PLANS SHOULD COVER PAZ. ONE OR MORE PROVINCES MIGHT BE IN PAZ BOUNDRIES. EVACUATIONTIME ESTIMATE BRINGS A SYSTEMATIC METHOD TO NATIONAL LEVEL EVACUATION PLANS. IT OFFERS WAYS TO IMPROVE EMERGENCY PLANS. PROVIDE DATA TO DECISION MAKERS BEFORE AND DURING THE EMERGENCY SITUATION TO TAKE ACTION ON TIME. THESE ANALYSIS PROVIDE USEFUL DATA FOR AFAD & TAEK
