Large-scale geographic exclusion zones have been established after major disasters in which radioactive particles were released into the environment: Two exclusion zones (5 nautical miles (9.3 km; 5.8 mi) and 7 nautical miles (13 km; 8.1 mi)) were established temporarily in the Baltic Sea following the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage.
Border zones are areas where movement, property ownership or other activity is prohibited or restricted by legislation.
The volcano destroyed the island's urban center and capital Plymouth, as well as many other villages and neighborhoods.
For this purpose they are defined locations to prohibit the entry of personnel into danger areas, established through the risk assessment process for a construction activity.
The existence of exclusion zones is based on court rulings that allow the government to regulate the time, place, and manner of protests.
