The dam is right there! " They are the "troublemakers" on the dam, as long as people are at risk. China An | Li Yun | Dam
On August 8th, as the discharge of floodwater continues to increase, the embankment of the Taitou section of the Daqing River in Tianjin faces the risk of piping and leakage. On the embankment, a rescue team dressed in red uniforms is particularly eye-catching, and their figures can be seen wherever there are hidden dangers.
Li Yun, the captain of the Hunan Emergency Rescue Base Detachment of China Anneng, said: The water level has reached 5.79 meters today, and the risk is increasing. There will still be a flood peak passing through tonight.
As night gradually falls and visibility decreases, a professional inspection and assault team consisting of 75 members of the Anneng emergency rescue team is distributed in groups of three on the nearly 17 kilometer embankment line. The team members are on duty in three shifts every 24 hours, and they also provide professional guidance to local patrol personnel.
Li Yun, the captain of the Hunan Emergency Rescue Base Detachment of China Anneng, said: There have also been loopholes here, and the entire slope is facing a risk of water seepage. Please notify the local government as soon as possible to carry out anti-seepage treatment on the upstream surface.
As the first checkpoint for Tianjin to face the floods of the Daqing River, Taitou Town in Jinghai District is located in the Dongdian Flood Storage and Detention Area, and the flood control task is arduous. To support the flood control work in Tianjin, on August 4th, the Emergency Management Department dispatched a Chinese Anneng emergency rescue team from Changsha, Chongqing, Wuhan, and Tangshan, with 240 professional personnel and 170 professional rescue equipment dispatched to Tianjin. On the day of arrival, they immediately joined the frontline task of flood control and rescue.
According to hydrological predictions, the water level will reach 6 meters when the flood peak passes through the head section of the Daqing River from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m. on August 9th. The constantly rising water level put tremendous pressure on the embankment and embankment. On the evening of August 8th, after 9 o'clock, a previously treated pipe seepage appeared again, and rescue teams rushed to the scene to strengthen the treatment.
Li Yun, the captain of the Hunan Emergency Rescue Base Detachment of China Anneng, said: What we are doing here is an anti filtration well, in which fine sand has already been laid. Now we are laying medium stones to prevent further soil loss.
After more than half an hour of emergency response, the threat posed by the piping to the dam body has been basically eliminated.
After fighting for 5 consecutive days and nights, the rescue team eliminated one risk after another. Everyone has only one belief in their hearts: as long as people are there, the dam is there!
At 6:00 am on August 9th, the newly built spillway in the upper reaches of the Daqing River discharged a flow rate of 900 cubic meters per second, and the water level in the Taitou section of the Daqing River reached 6 meters for the first time. With the support of more than 5000 rescue forces day and night, the embankments and embankments in the north and south have successfully withstood the invasion of the flood, ensuring the safety of the homes on both sides.
