Abstract
A model of public evacuation is developed for use in evaluating the efficacy of evacuation as a protective measure in response to atmospheric releases of radioactive material. Differences between this model and the model of public evacuation previously developed for the Reactor Safety Study are described. Based on an analysis of available EPA evacuation data, ranges are suggested for the temporal parameters in the new model. The relative importance of the model parameters is also discussed.Keywords
