What is Seveso / Bekra?

In Seveso, Italy, the Seveso Directive was published by the EU as a result of an industrial accident at a chemical production plant. With this directive, it is aimed to reduce the risks of major accidents involving dangerous substances. In this context, "REGULATION ON THE PREVENTION OF MAJOR INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS AND THE REDUCTION OF THEIR EFFECTS" (BEKRA*) was published in the Official Gazette on March 2, 2019, in order to prevent possible major industrial accidents in our country and to minimize the possible harm to human and the environment if they cannot be avoided.
