Shandong Province Plays a Good Combination Fist in Flood Prevention and Preparedness to Ensure Safe Flood Emergency Response | Warning | Shandong
Jinan, July 12 (Xinhua) -- A flood emergency drill was held in Mahe Reservoir, Tengzhou City, Shandong Province, with the background of "sudden flood situation in the reservoir", to seal the dam breach, build sub embankments, raise the embankment top, lay impermeable soil and water membranes, and transfer "disaster stricken" people to a safe area. After receiving the order, more than 120 emergency rescue personnel rushed to the front line with flood prevention equipment to participate in the "emergency rescue".
"Mahe Reservoir is located in the northeast of Tengzhou City and is the largest reservoir in Tengzhou. In the event of a sudden flood, it will endanger most of Tengzhou City and the urban area. According to Han Changjun, the Minister of the People's Armed Forces of Tengzhou City, every year before the flood season, they will carry out flood prevention emergency drills at Mahe Reservoir, adhere to the construction of flood prevention emergency teams, solidly formulate emergency plans and plans, and carry out emergency assembly, stormboat emergency rescue, and evacuation of affected people, continuously improving the emergency response team's ability to carry out emergency tasks.".
In Linshu, Shandong Province, the housing and construction department divided the urban area into four flood control grids: east, west, south and north based on the establishment and improvement of the emergency rescue plan, in view of the fact that severe weather such as heavy storms and rain continues to increase, and organized municipal, construction, gas and sewage treatment units and enterprises to arrange and dispatch urban flood control and other conditions, decompose work tasks layer by layer, and comprehensively build a "safety net" for urban flood control.
At present, Linshu has established and adjusted the urban flood control emergency rescue plan and flood control team, set up a 24-hour flood control hotline, and timely released early warning information of meteorological disasters such as rainstorm, gale and lightning. More than 5000 flood prevention materials have been stored, 26 construction sites under construction have been inspected, 13 gas and commercial mixed enterprises have been inspected, and more than 100 kilometers of gas supply and sewage collection pipelines have been inspected. 133 safety hazards have been identified and corrected to ensure production safety during the flood season in the field of housing and construction.
"Affected by continuous heavy rainfall, the water level of the river rises sharply, and the shoreline of the river exceeds the warning water level. There is a possibility of sudden situations such as river overflow and people being trapped." In Linyi County, Texas, the flood control emergency drill in Linyi Town has set up such a simulation scenario. After receiving the warning information, the local authorities immediately activated the flood control and disaster relief emergency plan, and the emergency team quickly took action to carry out various flood control and disaster relief work. Simulated emergency team assembly, public evacuation and transfer, and emergency repair and reinforcement of dangerous embankments.
The entire drill process strictly followed the steps of danger inspection, reporting, issuing warnings, and reinforcing danger sections one by one. The entire process was well organized and orderly, achieving the expected results. The relevant person in charge of Linyi Town stated that in the next step, the town will continue to solidly carry out various flood prevention and emergency preparedness work, build a strong safety defense line during the flood season, and fully guarantee the safety of people's lives and property.
In order to strengthen the responsibility for flood and typhoon prevention, Taierzhuang District of Zaozhuang strictly implements the district level leadership's adherence to the system of leading teams and 24-hour joint duty in the flood and drought prevention command center, timely adjusts various flood and drought prevention and control responsible persons, as well as flood control projects such as rivers and reservoirs, as well as urban flood control and important facility flood control responsible persons, and actively accepts social supervision. Implement flood control responsibilities for key areas and weak links such as geological hazard prone areas, low-lying areas prone to flooding, tourist attractions, and industrial parks one by one, and refine responsibilities to monitoring and early warning, command and dispatch, inspection and duty, emergency rescue, and relocation and resettlement, ensuring full coverage and no blind spots.
In terms of pre flood hazard investigation, 35 member units of the Taierzhuang District's prevention and control index have self inspected 58 hidden dangers and completed all rectification. The District Flood Control Office organized emergency management, urban and rural water affairs, and the Hanzhuang Canal Water Conservancy Management Bureau to conduct comprehensive pre flood inspections on flood control engineering and non engineering measures, as well as key flood control units, such as key river embankments, small reservoirs, drainage pumping stations, gates, dams, and culverts in the entire district. According to the geographical location and the degree of disaster susceptibility, 28 key flood control villages and locations have been identified and assigned responsible persons, and key control measures have been implemented.
On the morning of July 12, the Yicheng District of Zaozhuang City was hit by rainstorm. The staff of the Municipal Garden Affairs Center opened the rain grate in the rainstorm, placed anti-collision guardrails, and made all-around flood prevention preparations. With the arrival of a new round of rainfall, in order to prevent waterlogging in the urban area, Yicheng District has established flood prevention and rescue teams and reserve teams through measures such as conducting flood control drills, dredging rivers, repairing embankments, and conducting risk investigations. At the same time, we will strictly implement the 24-hour flood prevention duty system during the flood season, establish mechanisms for information reporting, rapid communication, and timely scheduling, and prepare for emergency response at any time to cope with potential natural disasters that may occur during the flood season.
In order to strengthen emergency warning, Lingcheng District of Dezhou invested 4.735 million yuan to build an emergency broadcasting platform covering urban and rural areas. One district level command and dispatch platform and 13 town and street sub control platforms were set up, with 140 urban terminals and 962 village level terminals arranged, achieving full coverage of the 500000 population in the entire district. This year's flood season, Lingcheng District will use this system to timely broadcast weather changes, remind the public to effectively avoid disasters and risks, and fully guarantee the safety of people's lives and property.
