This paper is about the establishment of "Initial Response System." Initial response system is most important and should be treated urgently among all preparations for chemical terrorism. The objects of Initial response system are to protect civilians and the first responder who are exposed directly to chemical terrorism. Therefore, this paper suggests two main issues about Initial response system. One is to prepare immediate and exact information service system which assures the safety and survival of exposed people. The other is to build Scene Response System integrated with Command-Control Procedure for early finished situation. Compared to United States, overcoming the Chemical Terrorism requires to improve the contents of two categories: Counter Citizen Response part and Initial Scene Response part. For Counter citizen response part' s sake, the web-sites of Response leader agencies for searching information about chemical terrorism should be modified specifically. These web-sites have to be re-organized in detail. The existing Information service system which has been vaguely informed as "CBRNE Accident" needs to be divided as "CBRNE Accident" and "WMD terrorism." Further, each of them should be specialized in "Chemical', "Biological", and "Radiological" categories. There is a need to rearrange current Emergency Instruction for civilians against chemical terrorism in feasible way. At the same time, it should be applied consistently to all organizations through agreement between experts and related-organizations. For Initial Scene Response part's sake, "Initial scene response procedure (SOP)" and "Operational conception" should be produced through Simulated Exercises and workshops of all organizations related with initial response. These organizations have to cooperate with Ministry of Environment which is the main leader Agency as the center. Next, there is a need to develop a technology and Scene Response Equipments, and to standardize the response equipments which consider the capability of First Responders for chemical terrorism. Especially, improving capability of equipments is required to overcome the vulnerability of Scene Response Equipments.

본 논문에서는 실시간으로 측정된 심박수와 OpenCV를 이용한 움직임 감지를 통해 피보호자의 위급 상황을 인식하고, 보호자에게 실시간으로 영상을 공유함으로써 사고를 방지하고 신속히 대처할 수 있도록 하는 복지 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다. 구현 시스템은 환자, 독거노인, 어린이 등 돌봄이 필요한 대상에 대한 보호자의 걱정을 덜고, 위급상황 발생 시 보다 신속하게 대처하기 위해 고안되었다. 보호자는 응급 알람뿐만 아니라 실시간 영상전송을 통해 실제 상황을 바로 인지하고 적절하게 대처할 수 있다. 또한 기존 홈 CCTV와 달리 위급 상황에서만 카메라가 동작하므로 사생활 침해의 걱정을 최소화하도록 구현하였다.

재난상황하에서는 신속한 지역단위 재난복구를 전문적으로 담당하는 인력이 필요하다. 그러나, 현재의 재난대응체계에서는 대민지원, 자원봉사 등 수준에서 재난복구를 시행하고 있으므로 전문성 부족으로 인한 초기대응 및 재난복구 지연, 재난 지속시 대응 미흡 등 다양한 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 그러므로, 재난상황시 지자체단위 초기 대응능력 구비와 신속히 재난복구를 할 수 있는 전문성을 가진 부대의 창설이 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 재난상황하 긴급 재난복구를 통한 지역안정과 재해 주민구호, 재난이전으로의 신속한 전환을 위한 예비군 긴급대응부대를 창설과 운용방안 수준의 방향성을 제시하였다.

In these days, hazards in laboratories are consistently increasing due to high technological advance in modern science. Efforts to prevent accidents in laboratories became law named [ACT ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SAFE LABORATORY ENVIRONMENT]. The law made laboratories more safely but it's not enough to keep up laboratory safety in advanced countries. To improve laboratory safety, this study reformed laboratory emergency response flow chart based on each emergency scenarios and its evaluated hazards in laboratories applied wireless hazard detecting equipments.

During an emergency due to a shortage of power, a load aggregator (LA) can use the demand response operation system to deploy demand response resources (DRRs) through various demand response (DR) programs. This paper introduces the demand response operation system for a load aggregator to manage various demand response resources in a smart grid environment.

Background: In case of radiation emergencies, internal exposure monitoring for the members of public will be required to confirm internal contamination of each individual. In-vivo monitoring technique using portable gamma spectrometer can be easily applied for internal exposure monitoring in the vicinity of the on-site area. Materials and Methods: In this study, minimum detectable doses (MDDs) for $^{134}Cs$, $^{137}Cs$, and $^{131}I$ were calculated adjusting minimum detectable activities (MDAs) from 50 to 1,000 Bq to find out the optimal in-vivo counting condition. DCAL software was used to derive retention fraction of Cs and I isotopes in the whole body and thyroid, respectively. A minimum detect-able level was determined to set committed effective dose of 0.1 mSv for emergency response. Results and Discussion: We found that MDDs at each MDA increased along with the elapsed time. 1,000 Bq for $^{134}Cs$ and $^{137}Cs$, and 100 Bq for $^{131}I$ were suggested as optimal MDAs to provide in-vivo monitoring service in case of radiation emergencies. Conclusion: In-vivo monitoring program for emergency response should be designed to achieve the optimal MDA suggested from the present work. We expect that a reduction of counting time compared with routine monitoring program can achieve the high throughput system in case of radiation emergencies.

지진 시 광범위한 가스누출에 의한 화재는 인명피해 및 심각한 재산손실을 초래한다. 이러한 지진피해를 줄이는 효과적이 고도 합리적인 방법의 하나로 가스공급정지를 고려할 수 있다. 우리나라의 지진세기와 빈도 및 도시가스의 공급체계를 생각하면 지진시 가스공급정지는 일반 가정에서 개별차단기를 설치하여 실시하는 것보다 도시가스사에서 일괄적으로 수행하는 것이 보다 경제적이다. 본 연구에서는 지진 시 신속하게 가스공급 정지를 판단할 수 있는 긴급대응시스템을 제안하였다. 가스 공급지역내에서 계측된 지반가속도의 크기에 따라 적절한 조치를 취할 있도록 2단계의 기준지진도를 제안하였으며, 지진 피해를 입은 지역에 한해서 가스공급을 정지할 수 있도록 공급지역 블록화를 제안하였다. 또한, 실제 가스공급지역을 대상으로 하여 지반해석과 피해도 해석을 수행하여 기준지진도를 설정하고 긴급대응시스템을 적용하였다.

Electricity industries throughout the world are undergoing unprecedented changes. As a result, these changes lead to the separation of traditional integrated utilities and the introduction of competition in order that increase efficiency in electricity industry. Direct load control (DLC) system in competitive electricity market has a hierarchical interactive operation system, therefore, its control logic is also applied by bilateral interactive method that interchanges information related to interruptible load between operation hierarchies. Consequently, load curtailment allocation algorithm appropriate for new DLC system is required, and based on interchanged information, this algorithm should be implemented by most efficient way for each operation hierarchy. In this paper, we develop the load curtailment allocation algorithm in an emergency for new DLC system. Especially, the optimal algorithm for load aggregator (LA) that participates in competitive electricity market as a main operator for load management is developed.

Due to almost all tracks of new Kyoungbu high-speed lines(HSL) consisting of bridges and tunnels, HSR operational safety management is very important factor for passenger safety and preventing catastrophic event. Especially, it is important to approach the scene of the accident and assist in saving lives as soon as possible under emergency conditions. Therefore it is essential to prepare access methods and available resources in advance in order to support emergency correspodances promptly and effectively. This paper persents an application of geographical information system(GIS) for developing emergency management system as well as batabase system on tracks and facilities, electric/communication equipment and safety equipment required to support emergencies. The on-site information on the proximity of HSL is expressed on the numerical map, which can be helpful to call external supports such as medical service, local authorities, police offices, fire brigades, and etc. for the emergency situations.

Background: A contamination screening process for the local population in radiation emergencies is discussed. Materials and Methods: We present an overview of the relevant Korean governmental regulations that underpin the development of an effective response system. Moreover, case studies of foreign countries responding to mass casualties are presented, and indicate that responses should be able to handle a large demand for contamination screening of the local public as well as screening of the immediate victims of the incident. Results and Discussion: We propose operating procedures for an off-site contamination screening post operated by the local government for members of the public who have not been directly harmed in the accident. In order to devise screening categories, sorting strategies assessing contamination and exposure are discussed, as well as a psychological response system. Conclusion: This study will lead to the effective operation of contamination screening clinics if an accident occurs. Furthermore, the role of contamination screening clinics in the overall context of the radiation emergency treatment system should be clearly established.
