BOURA, Jindřich
The theoretical part of this thesis deals with the protection of the population, focusing specifically on events that are associated with the release of hazardous chemicals. The content of the first chapter is the basic division between incidents that are categorised as being events that are caused by human activities and events that occur irregardless of human activity and are mainly of a natural character. This chapter, is focused on events that are related to human activities and events that have some association with the release of hazardous chemicals such as accidents that occur at chemical facilities. In the following subsection the basic classification of hazardous chemicals in accordance with their chemical properties and their toxicity is processed.The following subsection deals with population protection as a whole. For helping with understanding this issue in its entirety this subsection presents basic information that is related to population protection and defines the characteristics of the basic concepts that are related to this issue. Both warning and evacuation are discussed in greater detail in this chapter. The text also defines emergency planning as representing a basic means of population protection. Emergency planning is described from the level of a territorial authority unit, i.e. as a regional emergency plan, to an in-house emergency plan for a chemical plant.In the second part of the thesis research questions are formulated, which read: "What is the readiness of the system for protecting the population of České Budějovice in the event of the leakage of hazardous chemicals?" The research was focused on the content of the relevant plans of the entities that deal with hazardous chemicals in the district of České Budějovice. During the research basic criteria were observed that should be included in those plans; namely whether or not they are listed there.Subjected to research were the 16 plans for tackling emergencies of the entities that deal with hazardous chemicals in both the District and the City of České Budějovice. Following is an evaluation of the results obtained in accordance with the Readiness Index that was established. At the conclusion of the work the research questions were also answered with regard to the serious deficiencies that had been identified in the relevant plans during the research period. The discussion and the conclusion also contain proposed measures that are aimed at improving the overall level of population protection within the territorial authority unit constituting both the District and the City of České Budějovice.

Logistics of Municipalities with Extended Competence of The Highlands Region with Focus on Civil Protection
PAUK, Roman
My thesis deals with the issue of logistics application to civil protection in municipalities with extended competence in The Highlands Region. Logistics in general involves a large number of activities. Their implementation in the individual spheres of civil protection generates a wide topic. As numerous emergency situations might arise in The Highlands Region it is necessary to be ready to cope with them. And this is the subject of civil protection and the related logistic activities. The aim of my thesis is to examine the current state of the logistic provision of civil protection by the local authorities of The Highlands Region, specification of drawbacks in this sphere and suggestion of possibilities to improve these logistic activities of municipalities with extended competence. Identification of the needs of people affected by emergency events and recommendation of possible changes is another point. These issues are dealt with by numerous regulations dealing with civil protection, crisis management and budgeting. Crisis plans of regions are further important documents. Some of the logistic activities are provided on behalf of The Highlands Region by the Regional Fire Brigade upon applicable laws. Nevertheless there are lots of further tasks the communities with extended competence of The Highlands Region themselves are responsible for. Generally speaking most of the logistics is based on collection and distribution of information for creation of various plans and on logistics communication. Most of the logistics activities would become urgent in the instance of emergency situation occurrence or thread.

Eligible behaviour of population at starting warning and notification.
JINDŘICH, Eduard
Annotation Warning of inhabitants in the Czech Republic is ensured by an integrated system of warning and notification. The system consists of terminal elements, rotating or electronic sirens, wireless public address systems and control terminals. Timely warning of inhabitants is essential in case of accidents and extraordinary events. Currently, substantial amounts are being invested into the integrated system of warning and notification and new concepts are being introduced into the sphere of notification and warning of inhabitants. The objective of my thesis is to monitor the behavior of inhabitants of the South Bohemian region in case of a start-up of the integrated system of warning and notification. I.e. to identify the number of persons who would know what to do in case of an extraordinary event. The research was conducted by means of a questionnaire survey. Questionnaires were distributed to inhabitants of the South Bohemian region in all age categories. The completed questionnaires were processed into diagrams. In conclusion of the thesis I have summarized the most important findings resulting from the survey and proposed potential solutions for this issue.
