Fig. 1. Scenario assessment of HIF

Risk is a measure of probability and consequences of some adverse effects. In the view that risk is a very multifaceted concept, various risks are traditionally distinguished into individual, social and economic ones: - The individual risk R i is defined as the probability that an average unprotected (or some pre-selected) person permanently present at a certain location will be killed due to an accident at the HIF over one year period.

where P ( S j ) is the probability of realization of the scenario S j at HIF in one year period, P ( f | S j ) is conditional probability that the predefined (or average) person will be killed due to realization of the scenario S j . - Social risk R S is defined as the relationship between frequency and the number of people suffering accidents at the HIF. It is assessed using the so-called FN -curves which describe the probability of exceedance for the random variable N that designates the number of victims due to accidents at the facility per year:

where F N ( x ) is cumulative probability distribution function of the number of fatalities per year N , f N ( x ) is the probability density function of the number of fatalities. A set of social risk indexes were developed to conduct quantitative assessment of societal risk. The mathematical mean of the number of victims E { N } is the most widely used social risk index commonly known as the integral society risk index:
