–
Unmitigated risk contribution as a proportion of the intolerable risk frequency. Results above 100% indicate that an
individual compartment would be capable of presenting an intolerable risk.
In this figure those compartments which are green contribute least to the overall environmental risk for a given receptor
whilst those which are orange and red contribute the most. This combined with a ranked list of compartments and events can
then be used to focus on those areas where mitigation assessments will make the biggest difference. In addition to the
holistic view of risk presented in this figure it is also possible to present site wide data for each individual event type to
identify whether it is individual events or individual compartments which contribute the most to the risk.
