Classification of emergency is made on the basis of many indicators (number of affected people, material damage, the border zone, which is subject to factors affecting) and looks like this:
• Cross border.This is the situation that occurred outside of any state, affecting its territory.Any actions aimed at eliminating the dangerous situation is possible only with the permission of the government and must not be contrary to accepted international standards of law and the contract.
• Federal.Emergency situations, which affected more than 500 people or material damage over 5 million base units at the time of the accident.Liquidation is carried out by the executive branch of the state.
• Regional.This extraordinary situation in which the number of victims varies from 50 to 500, the minimum material loss is 0.5 million base units at the time of the accident.Liquidation is carried out by local executive authorities.
• Local.In this case, the number of victims - at least 50 persons or material damage does not exceed 0.5 million base units at the time of the accident.Liquidation is carried out under the control of local authorities.
• Local.Emergency situations, which affected 10 or fewer people, or violated conditions in more than 100 persons, or property damage does not exceed 5 thousand base units at the time of the accident.Liquidation is carried out by local authorities.
• Local.Emergency situations, which affected 10 people or less, or material damage amounted to less than one thousand basic units at the time of the accident.These emergencies occupied territory object of social or production value.
This classification emergencies common and is found in many sources.Depending on the cause, they can be man-made and environmental.From this depends largely on the number of victims, the amount of property damage, environmental pollution and so on.
Classification of technogenic emergencies:
1. Transport accidents.
2. Explosions and fires.
3. Accidents at which the risk of release of radioactive substances.
4. Unplanned collapse of buildings.
5. Accidents on power systems.
6. Accidents associated with communal life-support systems.
As a rule, in this case guilty of to some extent are the people themselves.In most cases, they are victims of their own negligence.At the same time, this is not the environmental disaster.There are crucial natural and man-made and natural phenomena.This may result in a threat to the health or life of people occur destruction or the destruction of property.
all natural disasters occur under the influence of the forces of nature, processes that occur in the Earth's crust.In general, they understood, but many still can not be forecast.
Classification of environmental emergencies:
1. Geological: earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, landslides, debris flows, avalanches, erosion.
2. Weather: squalls, tornadoes, whirlwinds, hail, rain, snow, severe frost, drought, hurricanes, storms.
3. Hydrological: tsunami, pressure ice, ice ships, tropical cyclones, floods, peel the coastal ice, floods, rain flows.
4. Natural and forest fires.
5. Diseases widespread.
Classification of emergency may be much wider.It depends on many factors.However, any of such events is dangerous for man and, if possible they should be avoided.
