Prevention of the possible accidents in DIAMO state enterprise, Těžba a úprava uranu division Stráž pod Ralskem
ŠIMÁČKOVÁ, Eva
This bachelor thesis focuses on the area of precaution of serious emergency inception in buildings or facilities in DIAMO state-owned enterprise, fraction plant Extraction and Uranium Processing (Těžba a úprava uranu, further o. z. TÚU). This work elaborates the means of securing elementary tenets and principles in the area of precaution of serious emergency inception. The introductory part of the bachelor thesis emphasizes the need of solving the precaution of serious emergency inception area primarily because of the increasing amount of dangerous substances, which are becoming possible sources of people´s health and property hazard. Also the number of operators increases, who handle dangerous substences. All these aspects raise the risk of serious emergency inception. In the theoretical part most importantly the findings are elaborated, which were gained from specialist information sources. The basic legal regulation in the Czech Republic which adjusts the area of precaution is the legal code nr. 59/2006 on emergency inception precaution caused by chosen chemicals or chemical agents. Individual requirements following the law on serious emergency precaution and its regulation nr. 256/2006 on partialities of the serious emergency precaution system are elaborated in the theoretical part. An important part of the bachelor thesis are the research question determination and the research methods. To solve the question whether a document update on serious emergency precaution in o. z. TÚU is necessary, a procedure was set which the analysis of security documents and internal regulations was built on. The research was focused on the analysis of the current state and the changes which have taken place since the last update of the Security Report. Appraisal of the current state was carried out using consultations. In order to asses the possible impact of these changes on precaution guarantee, besides others a situation modelling of a one-time ammonia leakage was tried out in the programme TerEx. The basis for fulfilling the aim of the bachelor thesis was a detailed familiarization with the complete security documentation of the assessed building. The security documentation includes the Security Report processed in accordance with the regulation nr. 256/2006 on partialities of the serious emergency precaution system. The Security Report consists of several parts which include technical description of the building or facility, a description of the operated technologies using dangerous substances, and a description of the precautionary measures. After the consultations with the specialist senior executive of the security and occupational hygiene department an inspection to the building or facility in their presence was made and was described. The discussion summarizes the results which the analysis of the Security Report brought. The second part of the discussion takes the real changes into consideration with respect to their possible influence on the operation security. The result of this evaluation is elaborated in the suggestion Report of Consideration of the Security Report, which is attached to this bachelor thesis. The work was suggested and presented to the Regional Office in the Liberec Region and discussed with the workers of the department of environment and agriculture. In closing I want to mention that the system of serious emergency precaution in o. z. TÚU is specially elaborated, similarly it is working and compatible with the valid legal requirements. On the basis of the presented and suggested Report of Consideration of the Security Report we can claim that with respect to the impact of the carried out changes to guarantee precaution of serious emergency inception it is not necessary to upload the Security Report.

Issues of transporting dangerous chemical substances in road transport
VANDAS, David
The paper deals with transportation of dangerous chemical substances in road transport in the Czech Republic. The paper was elaborated on the basis of available literature focused on transportation of dangerous chemical substances, especially on the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road. This Agreement is the crucial document for transportation of dangerous goods both in the Czech Republic and in all states, which acceded to this Agreement. The objective of the paper is assessing the implementation of the European regulations into the regulations of the Czech Republic and mapping the awareness of the public about issues of the transportation of dangerous goods in road transport. By processing specialized literature about this topic, it was found out that the implementation of the European regulations into the regulations of the Czech Republic was very flexible and fast. On the basis of the quantitative research by means of a questionnaire research among the public and drivers working in the transportation of dangerous goods it was found out that the public did not have sufficient information about the transportation of dangerous goods in road transport. On the contrary, drivers transporting dangerous goods are excellently familiar with this issue. With respect to the fact that the public has not enough information about the transportation of dangerous goods, the public administration should provide more pieces of information in the form of leaflets and promotion events. Furthermore, it would be appropriate to include basic information about transporting dangerous substances focused especially on conduct in case of traffic accidents of vehicles transporting dangerous substances into the courses and follow-up training at driving schools. Nowadays, a majority of the population possesses a driving licence but in the theoretical lessons, risks of the dangers of transportation of dangerous chemical substances in road transport are not mentioned.

Emergency action plan in case of accident with ammonia leak at the Winter Stadium Kotlina Havlíčkův Brod
ZEZULOVÁ, Jana
The amount of ammonia used for cooling stadiums is usually lower than the limits stated in annex to the Act about prevention of fatal accidents caused by dangerous chemical substances, and for this reason the stadiums aren't subject to such strict security procedures determined by the law. However, these are places where big amounts of people can gather in a certain moment, thus in case of accident and ammonia leak, the health condition of many people could be threatened, given the fact that some of them don't even realise how to behave in such a situation. In the introduction of my thesis I focused my attention on the issues of extraordinary events, dangerous substances and products, on the legislation concerning the sphere of chemical substances and protection of population and accidents associated with the spills of dangerous substances. My work also contains the characteristics and description of ammonia and computer programmes used for modelling of consequences of accidents associated with spills of dangerous chemical substances. In the practical part of my thesis I simulated an accident with ammonia leak from Winter Stadium Kotlina in Havlíčkův Brod using the programming tool TerEx and from the results that I obtained I suggested a ?emergency action plan" targeting the analysis of eventual evacuation of pupils and pedagogical staff from the neighbouring primary schools. I used interviews with headmasters of primary schools for the purposes of this analysis. Furthermore, I analysed the population's level of awareness and knowledge of the problem (people living in the area of simulated zone of danger) and pedagogical staff from the neighbouring primary schools in the issues of correct practice in case of ammonia leak from the winter stadium. A part of thesis is a leaflet warning processed and an information poster intended for the population living in Havlíčkův Brod about correct practice in case of release of hazardous chemicals.

Measures to ensure population protection in the emergency planning zone Tomegas Ltd. storage of propane - butane Branice
FOŠUM, Daniel
The aim of this thesis is to propose measures to implement the emergency planning and emergency clearance operations, to prevent or reduce the immediate risk of accidents, according to documents provided by the IRS components, the community, administrative bodies and the storage operator. Another objective is to propose measures ensuring protection of the population in the emergency planning zone, in order to satisfy in the best possible way the following hypothesis: "Measures to implement the emergency planning and emergency clearance operations and measures to ensure population protection are an integral part of the external emergency plan, ready to resolve possible accident cases endangering lives, health, significant property values or the environment." To meet the objectives and verify the hypothesis, I used my own experience in the field of emergency planning and my personal knowledge of the site so that I could create a proposal of appropriate measures, designed to reduce an immediate menace, and mitigate the impacts of a possible major accident. To complete the goal I chose ``The storage of propane - butane bottles and bottling plant Branice at Milevsko", the local juristic person with the name TOMEGAS Ltd. By the South Bohemian regional authority, these operations were classified as category B under Act No. 59/2006 Coll., on the prevention of major accidents caused by selected hazardous substances or chemical preparations, and also an emergency planning zone with a radius of 1 km was established. Those objectives are proposed in accordance with all legal standards and regulations. I believe that the findings of my work will be applicable in building and updating an external emergency plan for given operations. The hypothesis is undoubtedly confirmed by the existence of international treaties and the EU legislation focused on the protection of people living in the neighborhood of buildings where dangerous substances and preparations are handled, as well as by the number of accidents happening worldwide. In the section ``Discussion{\crqq} several issues are analyzed, the major of which seems to be the financial aspect that may result in difficulties with the early establishment of proposed preventive measures.
