Answer The only reason I can think of for making the EPZ independent of plant size, safety features, demography and meteorology is the convenience of emergency planners. Such would take no consideration for the hazard a plant poses it would favor hazardous activity and penalize safe activity. 

The successes of the traditional approach have largely been obtained in the area of occupational safety, where statistical evidence is readily available concerning the incidence of injuries to individuals in areas such as tripping and falling accidents. Such accidents are amenable to behavior modification approaches because the behaviors that give rise to the accident are under the direct control of the individual and are easily predictable. In addition, the nature of the hazard is also usually predictable and hence the behavior required to avoid accidents can be specified explicitly. For example, entry to enclosed spaces, breaking-open process lines, and lifting heavy objects are known to be potentially hazardous activities for which safe methods of work...

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, should be mentioned the advisability of preparing a work plan prior to the commencement of any hazardous activity in which the objectives and the step-by-step procedures are clearly described. In this manner the safety practices of inexperienced personnel can be supervised, and if an accident should occur, the procedure can be replicated with a minimum of uncertainty...

Under the Swedish Environmental Protection Act, which came into force in January 1999, those companies that are responsible for environmentally hazardous activities requiring a permit are obliged to report on their environmental performance each year. Further, the Swedish authorities may decide that these environmental reports should include other environmental effects that are not covered in the permits. These requirements are expected to apply to as many as 20 000 companies.
