Abstract

The article presents a scientific analysis of the challenges in improving public alert and evacuation systems during emergencies, using the Dehqonabad Potash Plant - a hazardous industrial facility - as a case study. Key components such as hazard inventory, impact assessment, and transparent communication with the public are examined in detail. Practical recommendations are developed based on modern early warning technologies, evacuation planning, and international best practices. The findings are of significant relevance for enhancing the safety of communities living near hazardous industrial sites in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
