Emergencies can be categorized into three broad levels on the basis of

seriousness and response requirements, namely: –

1. Level 1: This is an emergency or an incident which is minor nature &

a. Can be effectively and safely managed, and contained within the

site, location or installation by the available resources;

b. Has no impact outside the site, location or installation.

2. Level 2: This is an emergency or an incident which –

a. Cannot be effectively and safely managed or contained at the

location or installation by available resource and additional support

is alerted or required;

b. Is having or has the potential to have an effect beyond the site,

location or installation and where external support of mutual aid

partner may be involved;

c. Is likely to be danger to life, the environment or to industrial assets

or reputation.

3. Level 3: This is an emergency or an incident with off-site impact which

could be catastrophic and is likely to affect the population, property and

environment inside and outside the installation, and management and

control is done by district administration. Although the Level-III

emergency falls under the purview of District Authority but till they step

in, it should be responsibility of the unit to manage the emergency. Level –

3 can be on site as well as offsite emergency.

10.2 Risk analysis and risk assessment (Regulation 10.2)

The second step is to determine the risk of an incident associated with each

hazard. The risk analysis may be used to identify the high risk of scenarios to

prioritize the emergency response plans. The risk analysis would also aid in

identifying the existing safeguards in place to prevent and mitigate the

hazardous event and in reducing the risk as low as reasonably practicable.

The basic procedure in a risk analysis shall be follows:

a) Identifying potential failures or incident (including frequency); (considered in

QRA)

b) Calculate the quantity of material that may be released in each failure,

estimate the probability of such occurrences; (considered in QRA)

c) Evaluate the consequences of such occurrences based on the scenario such

as most probable and worst case events; (considered in QRA)

d) The combination of the consequences and the probability will allow the risk

to be ranked in logical manner to indicate the zones of important risk;

(considered in QRA)

e) The risk should also be made as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP)

and least impacting the neighborhood. While conducting the risk analysis, a

quantitative determination of risk should be categorized in three regions;

(considered in QRA)

The second step is to determine the risk of an incident associated with each

hazard. The risk analysis may be used to identify the high risk of scenarios to

prioritize the emergency response plans. The risk analysis would also aid in

Definitions (Regulation 2) Page 36


EMERGENCY RESPONSE & DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ALDS - 2021

identifying the existing safeguards in place to prevent and mitigate the

hazardous event and in reducing the risk as low as reasonably practicable.

The risk contours are mapped as per PNGRB guidelines. Below given chart is

followed for risk evaluation and benchmarking –

Figure 2 Individual Risk per Annum criteria as per PNGRB

NOTE –As per PNGRB, a risk of 10 per million per year, or 10-5/Year, effectively means that any

person standing at a point of this level of risk would have a 1 in 100000 chance of being fatally

injured per year.

10.2.2 Benchmarking against PNGRB guidelines

Detailed Location Specific Individual Risk (LSIR) posed by the scheme at various

locations are given in the table below –

Table 6 Benchmarking of LSIRPA against PNGRB guidelines

SN Location Risk/avg year Benchmarking as per criteria

1 Entry 4.24E-06 ALARP, low risk

2 Exit 3.90E-06 ALARP, low risk

3 MS/HSD Fill Point 7.89E-06 ALARP, low risk

4 LPG Fill Point 9.84E-06 ALARP, low risk

5 LPG Dispenser 1.56E-05 ALARP, low risk

6 MS Dispenser 8.69E-06 ALARP, low risk

7 Office Room 8.37E-06 ALARP, low risk

As the risk is ALARP, following risk reduction measures are proposed in QRA report

1 Surrounding public areas will get impaired by the overpressure due to

rupture scenario. The people in surrounding area shall be educated or

provide brief introduction about the leakage and the precautions to be

taken in case of leakage is identified.

2 Preparation of ERDMP and its effective implementation will reduce the

risk further to practicable level.

10.3 Causes of Disasters (Regulation 10.3)

Any leak or fire explosion can occur due to poor maintenance/ unsafe acts of

employees or workers. BPCL conduct regular training to its workers and is

having a preventive maintenance schedule.

The impact of fire and explosion is considered in the QRA. The deficiency in the

design is not encountered so far and any change in existing system is followed

with Management of change system. For avoiding fire and explosion due to

smoking and vehicles exhaust, securities check is at place for every vehicle and

employee at entry gate. The area is prohibited for smoking. Hot jobs are being

allowed in the depot which may be the cause of fire, however with proper work

permit system at place.

10.3.2.1 Action Plan for Natural Hazards

High Winds

If the AIR / Doordarshan / TV media issues a “high wind caution”, personnel

should be assigned to monitor weather conditions, listen for broadcast warnings

and report on the threatening conditions.

If a “warning” is issued by the AIR/ Doordarshan / TV media (meaning that a high

wind has actually been shifted in the area) or if a funnel cloud is seen by facility

personnel. The following steps are to be taken:

 Personnel will be notified by the alarm

 The emergency brigade is placed on alert.

 Facility personnel are to seek shelter in the administrative building.

 All non-essential utilities should be shut-off

Definitions (Regulation 2) Page 42


EMERGENCY RESPONSE & DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ALDS - 2021

After the passing of a high wind, personnel should inspect their areas for

damage, if the facility was struck, emergency brigade personnel will begin

rescue, first aid and damage control activities. Damage assessment, clean up

and restoration and other recovery activities should follow.

Floods

When warning of impending flood conditions is received via weather broadcasts

or the police / fire department, the following steps should be taken.

 All the movable equipment and supplies are to be moved to other

elevated areas.

 Outside areas are to be checked for equipment and materials that

could be damaged by floodwaters.

 If time allows, sandbagged dykers are to be constructed to augment

existing dykes and to protect high-risk items

 Storage tanks / vessels should be checked and secured

Earthquakes

 During the earthquake, all personnel should evacuate buildings and proceed to

areas away from walls, windows or power lines.

 If evacuation is not possible, employees are to seek shelter under a desk, table

etc. or in doorways that offers protection from falling object. After the initial

quake, aftershocks should be expected.

 The RO ALDS Manager should contact operators for a report on employee safety

and a condition of facilities and equipment. The emergency brigade should

begin rescue, first aid and damage control activities.

 Emergency shutdown:

As soon as possible, emergency shutdown procedures should be implemented.

Definitions (Regulation 2) Page 43


EMERGENCY RESPONSE & DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ALDS - 2021

 Operate ROV’svalves

 Close liquid and vapour valves on vessels and road tanker

 After the earthquake subside, the personnel should inspect all the

facilities for rescue, first aid and damage control activities, damage

assessment, clean- up, restoration and recovery

10.3.3 Extraneous

1. Riots/Civil Disorder/ Mob Attack – Due to unrest in people residing in the

nearby city or vicinity of the industry, riots, civil disorders and mob attack can

take place. For preparedness of such situation, detailed security threat plan is

enclosed in the manual.

2. Terrorism – Despite of all security precaution, there are chances of terrorist

attacking the terminal from inside and outside. Local police and authorities

will be informed immediately in such case.

3. Sabotage – BPCL is very much vulnerable for attacks as it contains highly

flammable petroleum products and in very large quantity. All precautions are

taken to avoid any incident.

4. Bomb Threat – Off-late there are bomb threat in all vital installations, hence

bomb squad will be informed whenever there is an emergency.

5. War / Hit by missiles – There are very rare chances; however, the existing

facilities will be protected by defense forces stationed nearby. For this RO has

to take guidance from District authorizes.

10.4 Consequences (Regulation 10.4)

The consequences of an Incident may be confined within the premises or may

spill off-site triggering cascading effects.

Definitions (Regulation 2) Page 44


EMERGENCY RESPONSE & DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ALDS - 2021

The consequences of an Incident are fire explosion, deflagration, blast waves,

fast spreading flames, BLEVE, VCE, toxic release, Boil over etc. resulting in direct

effects like damage to buildings/property, burns, fatalities. However, an Incident

in the neighborhood may sometimes cascade into an on-site emergency. It

should be prevented or managed to avoid major emergency.

12 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS MEASURES (REGULATION 12)

12.1 Emergency Preparedness Measures

To evaluate the effectiveness of ERDMP BPCL Rae Bareilly Service Station

conducts Level -1 mock drills. A monthly schedule is followed for mock drills.

Observations are discussed in post mock drill meeting for further improvement.

12.2 Emergency Drills and Mock Exercises

(a) To evaluate the thoroughness and effectiveness of an ERDMP, it is necessary

to conduct periodic table top exercises full-scale or announced, and

unannounced drills. Each site holds drills on the night shifts, change shifts as

well as during the day as mandated under regulation 12.1 (e).

(b) Drills present a variety of Emergency scenarios and designed to challenge

each segment of the organization. Limited scale functional drills are useful and

may use by Chief of each Support Service to train their own team. Plans are

made to have periodic mass casualty exercises. These exercises have made an

attempt to simulate as closely as possible a fire, explosion and comparison of

the prescribed time lines and the actual received.

(c) The warning system, first aid, evacuation procedures and the treatment

procedures are tested periodically by six-Monthly at plant.

(d) Offsite drills will include the participation of outside member or groups and

agencies such as police, fire services, ambulance service, civil defense

organizations and mutual aid member of groups.

(e) Mock drill for Onsite (Level –I or II) and off site (Level-III) emergency shall be

carried once in three months and twelve months respectively in accordance with

Typical Mock Drill Reporting format provided in Annexure -3. Entity shall conduct

at least one on site emergency exercise of Level-II during a year

Emergency Mitigation Measures (Regulation 11) Page 70


EMERGENCY RESPONSE & DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ALDS - 2021

(f) It is the responsibility of the concerned District Authority to prepare and keep

up-to-date an adequate off-site emergency plan detailing as to how emergencies

relating to a possible major accident on the site will be dealt with, as per

prevailing provisions of Manufacture, Storage and Import of Hazardous

Chemical (MSIHC) Rules, 1989 and Disaster Management (DM) Act, 2005,

accordingly, entity shall submit the details to the concerned District Authority to

conduct the off-site mock drill.

For locations having more than one industry member, the Off-site emergency

exercise may be carried out by one industry member by turn in coordination

with the concerned District Authority, thus ensuring at least one off-site

emergency (Level-III) exercise is conducted at the location every year ‖;

20 EVACUATION (REGULATION 20)

1. The most prudent course of action for the protection of the nearby

residence would be to remain indoors with the doors, windows and

ventilators etc. closed and the air conditioning systems, if any, shut off and

also without operating electrical switches. Selective evacuation from the

area must be thought of only as the last resort and that too if the fire rages

for more than half an hour. People who suffered giddiness or any

discomfort by chance should be taken to common assembly places such as

religious establishments, schools etc. These places must be necessarily

provided with necessary medical aids, if not already provided.

The first action should be to stop the transport and the people in the

neighborhood on the roads near the facility.

Establishment of two or separate emergency field station for present

location is suggested. One of the stations acts as the emergency controls

station, if the second one is accessible.

The damage distances determined are superimposed on the facility layout

and the population likely to be affected around the facility is estimated. The

population of the people living around the facility is taken from the census

record.

2. This evacuation plan shall also consider

a) Basis for recommending on-site or off-site actions

b) Authorize person for area or site evacuation

c) Mode of communication

d) Training in locating exits from buildings, areas and the site

e) Location of escape equipment

f) Provisions for flashlights or other supplemental lighting

establish a State Disaster Management Authority for the State. The State

Authority is to be headed by the Chief Minister of the State as the Chairperson.

Every State Government, in turn, is to establish a District Disaster Management

Authority for every district in the State with the District Collector as the

Chairperson.

(3) The Central Government is empowered to take further measures as it

deems fit for the purpose of disaster management like deployment of naval,

military and air forces, other armed forces of the Union or any other civilian

personnel as may be required for the purposes of this NDMP Act. Government

of India is empowered to establish institutions for research, training, and

developmental programmes in the field of disaster management as per this Act.

(4) The national vision is to build a safer and disaster resilient India by

developing a holistic, proactive, multi-disaster and technology driven strategy for

NDMP. This will be achieved through a culture of prevention, mitigation and

preparedness to reduce the impact of disasters on people. The entire process

will centre stage the community and will be provided momentum and
