    Risk Management and Decision Rules for Light Water Reactors (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Risk analysis 1 (1981), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1539-6924

    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: A quantitative approach to risk management for accidents in light water nuclear power reactors is proposed to serve as one focus for discussion. In this proposal risk management is divided into two major tasks: the predominantly social and political task of setting the safety goals and the technical task of estimating the risks and deciding whether the safety goals have been met. The proposed safety goals include limits on the following: risk to the individual of early death or delayed cancer death; overall societal risk of early or delayed death; and the frequency of core melt accidents as well as the frequency of containment failure, given a core melt. Also included are a small element of risk aversion and an “as low as reasonably achievable” (ALARA) approach with a cost-effectviness criterion which includes both economic and health effects.

    Siting Hazardous Facilities: Lessons from LNG (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Risk analysis 1 (1981), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1539-6924
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: This paper develops a descriptive framework for siting large scale technological facilities such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, and suggests ways of using analyses to improve the process. A key feature of these problems is that they involve relatively new technologies where there has not been a long history with which to construct a statistical data base. Hence the interested parties will each have different estimates of the probabilities and losses associated with events that affect the environment or safety of the population. The decision-making process can be characterized as a sequence of decisions, subject to change over time, which are influenced by exogenous factors and new legislation. Each of the separate decisions involves an input phase and an interaction phase. The input phase specifies the relevant alternatives and attributes associated with a particular decision. The interaction phase focuses on the nature of the conflicts between the different parties in evaluating the alternatives. Conflicts are often difficult to resolve because each stakeholder in the process has his own objectives, a limited information base shaped by these objectives and scarce computational resources. We illustrate the above descriptive framework through a case study of the LNG siting process in California. The paper then explores possible ways of improving the input and interaction phases through more structured analyses. Specific attention is given to the role of decision analysis, the analytic hierarchy process, examining assumptions, and the use of interactive computer models for scenario generation. The paper concludes by suggesting future research needs on designing policy instruments for helping to reconcile conflicts between the vying interest parties. Promising areas for more problem-focused research include the role of insurance and compensation schemes.

    Assessment and Management of Risk in the Transport of Dangerous Materials: The Case of Chlorine Transport in France (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Risk analysis 1 (1981), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1539-6924
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: The purpose of this paper is to provide the main results of a study concerning the risk of chlorine transport by train in France. The specific problem of chlorine transport is presented in the framework of a general model for assessing the risk in the transport of dangerous materials. The probability of accidents followed with a chlorine release involving fatalities are put in perspective with other risks having potential health effects on the public. Two types of application of the model are envisaged in relation to the management of risk: the selection of protective measures through a cost-effectiveness approach and the use of the model for a better planning of decisions in an accident situation.

    Risk in Benefit-Cost Analysis (1981)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Risk analysis 1 (1981), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1539-6924
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: In recent years, benefit-cost analysis has been increasingly applied to large societal decision problems (such as developing a fast breeder energy economy) which involve both risks to society and analysis of very long-term consequences possibly extending over many human generations. This paper examines the philosophical underpinnings of the technique which is a special case of utilitarianism, and compares implications of the technique to those arising from alternative ethical systems in analyzing questions of public safety. Ethical systems which emphasize the good of the whole, such as utilitarianism, are shown to differ sharply in decision outcomes from those which emphasize the rights of the individual, such as libertarianism. It is suggested that benefit-cost analysis should be broadened to include alternative weightings of benefits and costs consistent with a variety of ethical views.

    The Multistage Model with a Time-Dependent Dose Pattern: Applications to Carcinogenic Risk Assessment (1984)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Risk analysis 4 (1984), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1539-6924
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: A cancer risk assessment methodology based upon the Armitage–Doll multistage model of cancer is applied to animal bioassay data. The method utilizes the exact time-dependent dose pattern used in a bioassay rather than some single measure of dose such as average dose rate or cumulative dose. The methodology can be used to predict risks from arbitrary exposure patterns including, for example, intermittent exposure and short-term exposure occurring at an arbitrary age. The methodology is illustrated by applying it to a National Cancer Institute bioassay of ethylene dibromide in which dose rates were modified several times during the course of the experiment.
