Role of cbrn response squadron, sri lanka army, possible threats and future c...Asanka Hidallaarachchi
Sri Lanka in pursuit of an ambitious journey to become the hub of action in the Indian Ocean. It is more than likely to encounter threats and resistance from her competitors. As influx of foreigners travelling as tourists or on transit, would be heavy in fuelling these hubs towards its success, maintaining a peaceful and conducive environment in the country would be mandatory. With the degree of industrialization Sri Lanka will undergo in achieving this status, danger of being subjected to CBRN threats will be manifolds. Hence we as a country should prepare now itself, to mitigate any perceived or actual CBRN threats, either induced or accidental. In this context initiating action forthwith, to build capacity in response efforts by training of personals and acquisition equipment is the need of the hour.
Design of Nuclear Security Regime to Combat Nuclear TerrorismAM Publications
Uses of nuclear and radioactive materials in peaceful applications in energy production, medicine,
research and industry, to improve the daily lives of individuals internationally makes these materials on the move and
in demand. On the other hand, the possible risk of using in terrorist purposes, by it falling into the wrong hands is a
real and growing concern of the international community and one that stresses enhanced nuclear security. In this
paper, the author will focus on efforts done by new nuclear energy users in the Middle East to sustain nuclear
security and reduce this risk. These efforts include accounting of radioactive material and their related facilities, and
helping to prevent illegal uses or transporting these materials, construction of a solid legislative, regulatory and
enforcement bases, enhanced national capacity, and increasing international cooperation in nuclear security.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. Emergency Management
Emergency Management is the application of the necessary
resources to mitigate consequences of an emergency and
protect workers, the public, the environment, and national
security.
It consists of key activities: planning, preparedness, readiness
assurance and response.
Emergency
An emergency is any unwanted operational (large scale
accidents), civil (mass agitation), natural calamities (earthquake,
cyclone, flood), or security occurrence (war situation) that could
endanger or adversely affect the health and safety of workers,
the public, and/or the environment.
1. Introduction
4. Introduction..
Preparedness
Refers to various actions of planning, organizing, training, and
exercising (with proper equipment and personnel) that are taken
in advance at normal times and can be adopted promptly upon
the occurrence of an emergency.
Response
Refers to measures to be taken upon the occurrence of an
emergency with various actions of preventing continual
deterioration of the situation and protecting the safety, health
properties of the public and the environment.
5. (a) Nuclear emergencies may occur at:
— Nuclear Power Reactors;
— Large irradiation facilities (e.g., industrial irradiators);
— Nuclear reactors (research reactors, ship etc.);
— Storage facilities for large quantities of spent fuel
— Fuel cycle facilities (e.g. fuel processing plants);
— Industrial facilities (e.g. facilities of radiopharmaceuticals);
— Research or medical facilities with large fixed sources.
Two types of emergencies
1. Nuclear (arise in nuclear installations)
2. Radiological (related to radioactive sources)
Type of Emergency
6. (b) Radiological emergencies include:
1. Sources
— Uncontrolled (abandoned or lost) dangerous sources;
— Misuse of industrial and medical dangerous sources;
— Detection of medical over-exposure;
— Public exposures and contamination;
— Nuclear weapons;
—Re-entry of a satellite containing radioactive material.
2. Transport emergencies
3. Serious overexposures
4. Terrorist threats and/or criminal activities

16. Effect of Nuclear Accident
Health and Environmental Hazards
The plume of radiation released by
Chernobyl accident settled on trees
killing areas of pine trees what is now
called the Red Forest.
The health and environmental effects of Nuclear incidents occur in
much larger scale. However, the effects of radiological incidents are
much lower than the nuclear incidents.
Children suffered from the thyroid
cancer after Chernobyl accident
17. Two questions arises from two historic severe nuclear accidents:
(1) Why, as a result of the Chernobyl release, did 1000 or more
children suffer from thyroid cancer that could have been easily
avoided?
(2) Why were actions of the operators partly the cause of the melting
of the core during the accident at Three Mile Island?
The answer to the first question is that the authorities under-reacted
because of lack of preparedness. The answer to the second
question is that the operators were not trained for the conditions
they faced. In both cases, the basic cause was that no one thought
it was worth preparing in advance for such low probability
emergencies.
3. Nuclear/Radiological Emergency Basics
18. Response goal is:
— To mitigate accident at the scene
— To prevent the occurrence of deterministic health effects
— To render first aid and to manage the treatment of injuries
— To reasonably reduce the stochastic health effects
— To protect the property and the environment
— To prepare for the resumption of normal social and economic
activity
Objectives: Emergency Preparedness and Response
Preparedness goal is:
— To ensure that arrangements are in place to protect
Public health
Public welfare and the environment
— To develop and implement
Justified and optimized countermeasures in a timely, managed, controlled,
coordinated and effective way
Emergency preparedness helps to build confidence that an
emergency response would be managed, controlled and coordinated
effectively.
19. Types of Health Effects in Emergencies
Deterministic Effect:
Is a fatal or life threatening or results in a permanent injury
Has a threshold level of dose
Threshold differs for different organs
Thresholds are one or more Gys
Stochastic Effect
The probability of occurrence increases with dose
No threshold level of dose
Cause cancers and hereditary effects
21. Emergency Types, Response Planning and
Responsibility..
General Emergency
Site Area Emergency
Plant Emergency
Standby Emergency
Four types of radiation emergency situations
may arise in nuclear installations
I. Standby Emergency (Alert)
II. Plant Emergency (Local/Facility)
III. Site Area Emergency
IV. General Emergency
I. Standby Emergency:
The emergency situation in which events are in progress or have occurred
indicate a potential degradation of safety at facility. Staff members are put on
stand-by and all agencies monitor the situation. This may arise in nuclear and
radiological facilities.
II. Plant Emergency:
The emergency situation in which radiological consequences are likely to be
confined to a limited area of the facility. This may arise in nuclear and
radiological facilities. Emergency agencies are notified and asked to stay in
touch.
22. Emergency Types..
III. Site Area Emergency:
The emergency situation involving an accidental release of radioactive
material extending beyond the plant boundary. Site area emergency is
declared if there is problem with the plant safety system. Members of public
should be alerted. This may arise in nuclear facilities.
IV. General Emergency:
The emergency situation in which consequences of the emergency extend
beyond the site boundary. A general emergency is declared when an event
at the plant has caused a loss of several safety systems that could lead to
release of radiation. This may arise in nuclear facilities.
All agencies and organizations involved in radiological emergency
preparedness are notified, all emergency operation centers are activated,
and all pre-designated agency personnel and resources are deployed.
23. Emergency Response Planning Areas and Zones
On-site Area
Area under the control of the operator or first responders. For nuclear
facilities the on-site area is the area surrounding the facility within the
security perimeter, fence or other designated property marker.
Off-site Area
Area beyond that area under the control of the facility, operator or first
responders. It applies for the nuclear facilities only.
Applies to nuclear facilities and is the area within which arrangements should
be made to implement precautionary urgent protective actions before or
shortly after a major release with the aim of preventing the occurrence of
severe deterministic effects.
Precautionary action zone (PAZ)
24. Emergency Response Planning Areas and Zones…
Applies to nuclear facilities. Preparations are made to promptly shelter in
place, to perform environmental monitoring and to implement urgent
protective actions on the basis of monitoring results within a few hours of
accident.

Suggested Nuclear emergency zones and radius sizes
26. Responsibility during Nuclear Emergency
Responsibilities are typically
assigned at three levels:
1. On-site
2. Off-site and
3. International
1. The operator is responsible for on-site
area under emergency. The responsibilities are:
■ Identifying and/or detecting an emergency or hazard;
■ Taking immediate action to mitigate the consequences;
■ Protecting individuals on the site;
■ Declaring the class of the emergency;
■ Notifying off-site officials and providing them technical assistance;
■ Establishing communication with off-site officials;
■ Assisting the off-site officials in keeping the public informed;
■ Providing initial radiological monitoring and technical advice.
27. Emergency Response Infrastructure

32. Legal Basis for Emergency Management
in Bangladesh
• Bangladesh Atomic Energy Regulatory (BAER) Act-2012
Nuclear Safety & Radiation Control (NSRC) Rules-1997
but have no integrated national emergency management
program.
• There are safety analysis report (SAR) for the research
reactor (RR) which includes preparedness and response
program for RR.
• National Nuclear and Radiological Emergency Response
(NNRER) Plan draft has been formulated.
33. Conduction of Integrated Emergency Preparedness and
Response Program at National Level
Establishment of National Nuclear and Radiological
Emergency Control Center
Skilled manpower should be developed in the Nuclear
and Radiological establishments.
Concerned personnel should be always alert about the
matter.
