Nuclear Emergency Preparedness and Response: Objectives, Guidelines and Principles
The objectives of China's nuclear emergency preparedness and response system include applying a rules-based, science-based, and unified approach to nuclear emergency management with a focus on timeliness and effectiveness in controlling, mitigating or preventing accidents to the extent possible, minimizing casualties and property damages, protecting the public and the environment, maintaining social order and safeguarding the people's safety and national security.
China's nuclear emergency management guidelines urge constant vigilance, and emphasize the need for enhanced interoperability, unified command, and improved coordination, and a focus on protection of the public and the environment.
The basic principles underlying this system call for unified leadership, clear lines of responsibility, tiered arrangements, coordination between local civil authorities and the military, and the use of science-based methodologies in emergency preparedness and rapid response operations.
