The Convention of Early Notification of a Nuclear Accident and the Convention on Assistance in the Case of a Nuclear Accident or Radiological Emergency deal with aspects of emergency response and preparedness. Both of these Conventions—briefly referred to as the Notification Convention and the Assistance Convention —were adopted within a very short time span of only five months after the Chernobyl accident in 1986. 

The Notification Convention applies in the event of any accident involving facilities or activities of a State Party, or those under its jurisdiction or control, from which a release of radioactive material occurs or is likely to occur, and which has resulted or may result in an international transboundary release that could be of radiological safety significance for another State. A State Party involved in an accident covered by the Convention is obliged to immediately notify, directly or through the IAEA, those States which are or may be physically affected.

In the year 1984, the Directive to the European Commission established an industrial accident notification scheme, the MARS, operated and maintained by the Major Accident Hazards Bureau of the Commission s Joint Research Center in Ispra, Italy.

Nuclear Power Station (NPS) at Forsmark on Monday 28 April 1986. Iodine-131 levels in rainwater samples were ten times those in the reactor coolant and ground deposition measurements were 20 kBq/m. Following the notification of this information by the Swedish authorities, the Soviet government announced that a reactor accident had occurred at Chernobyl NPS a few days earlier. 

The emergency alarm was sounded and operators in the plant withdrew to safe areas. The operators in the Central Control Room (CCR) in each reactor are the only operators to remain at their posts. Reactors 3 and 4 were probably controlled from a common CCR. Notification of the accident was made to the Ukrainian state authorities and assistance requested from local emergency services.
