  • Plume Countermeasures: Evacuation, Sheltering and Thyroid Blocking
    HKSARGDBCP – Chapter 6 CHAPTER 6 PLUME COUNTERMEASURES: EVACUATION, SHELTERING AND THYROID BLOCKING Introduction 6.1 The principal countermeasures against plume exposure pathways are evacuation, sheltering and thyroid blocking - (a) Evacuation Evacuation is one of the most commonly considered urgent protective actions for people located in close proximity in the event of nuclear or radiological emergency. Timely evacuation can prevent exposures via all possible exposure pathways against all types of radioactive substances by removing individuals from the proximity of the emergency. However, evacuation may be dangerous for special groups in the population, such as non- ambulatory patients, elderly and disabled. Logistic challenges may be faced under adverse weather or traffic conditions. (b) Sheltering Sheltering can also provide effective protection against exposure via major exposure pathways in suitable circumstances. For example, evacuation and thyroid blocking measures may not be practicable during inclement weather such as rainstorm, especially for vulnerable groups of the population. Rapid approach and passage of the plume may also be countered by immediate sheltering. Sheltering is relatively easier to implement but the protection is not total and cannot be sustained over long periods of time. General guidelines for sheltering can be found at Annex 6.1. (c) Thyroid Blocking Radioactive iodine is among the most common fission products released in a nuclear accident. People in close vicinity to the accident site and emergency responders may be exposed to significant levels of radioactive iodine. Infants and young children are the more susceptible groups. Thyroid blocking agent, taken before the arrival of the plume or within a few hours of the arrival of the plume, can effectively block the thyroid gland’s uptake of radioactive iodine and so reduce the risk of thyroid cancer.

  • Revised Draft Experiences with Inter Basin Water
    REVISED DRAFT EXPERIENCES WITH INTER BASIN WATER TRANSFERS FOR IRRIGATION, DRAINAGE AND FLOOD MANAGEMENT ICID TASK FORCE ON INTER BASIN WATER TRANSFERS Edited by Jancy Vijayan and Bart Schultz August 2007 International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) 48 Nyaya Marg, Chanakyapuri New Delhi 110 021 INDIA Tel: (91-11) 26116837; 26115679; 24679532; Fax: (91-11) 26115962 E-mail: [email protected] Website: http://www.icid.org 1 Foreword FOREWORD Inter Basin Water Transfers (IBWT) are in operation at a quite substantial scale, especially in several developed and emerging countries. In these countries and to a certain extent in some least developed countries there is a substantial interest to develop new IBWTs. IBWTs are being applied or developed not only for irrigated agriculture and hydropower, but also for municipal and industrial water supply, flood management, flow augmentation (increasing flow within a certain river reach or canal for a certain purpose), and in a few cases for navigation, mining, recreation, drainage, wildlife, pollution control, log transport, or estuary improvement. Debates on the pros and cons of such transfers are on going at National and International level. New ideas and concepts on the viabilities and constraints of IBWTs are being presented and deliberated in various fora. In light of this the Central Office of the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) has attempted a compilation covering the existing and proposed IBWT schemes all over the world, to the extent of data availability. The first version of the compilation was presented on the occasion of the 54th International Executive Council Meeting of ICID in Montpellier, France, 14 - 19 September 2003.
