Preparation of Coastal Facility Emergency Response Plans

NRC is authorized to develop risk assessment and emergency response plans of coastal facilities within the scope of the "Communiqué on Minimum Specifications of Institutions and Organizations to Prepare Risk Assessment and Emergency Response Plans for Pollution of the Marine Environment by Oil and Other Hazardous Substances".

Prevents Environmental Pollution

Accidents and spills at coastal facilities can pose a major threat to marine and coastal ecosystems. An emergency response plan ensures rapid and effective response to such incidents, preventing pollution and minimizing environmental damage.

Reduces Economic Losses

Accidents and spills at onshore facilities can cause significant economic losses, leading to production interruptions, facility damage and legal sanctions. An emergency response plan minimizes economic losses by mitigating the consequences of such incidents.

Ensures Human Safety

Accidents and spills at onshore installations can pose a risk to workers and people in the environment. An emergency response plan ensures human safety by preventing loss of life and injuries in such incidents.
