China News Service, March 2. According to the website of the Ministry of Water Resources, the Yellow River Water Conservancy Commission recently held a conference on defense against floods and droughts in 2020. The meeting proposed that China's flood and drought disaster defense situation is severe this year during the flood season. In view of the "black swan" events such as river floods, we must plan ahead and study and propose practical countermeasures.
According to hydrometeorological forecast, this year's flood season, China's climatic situation is complex, the overall meteorological outlook is uneven, the rainfall in the north and south is uneven, regional rainstorm floods and drought will be heavier than usual, extreme meteorological and hydrological events may occur frequently, and large river basins may occur. The situation of flood and drought disaster defense is severe.
Yao Wenguang, deputy director of the Yellow River Water Resources Commission, proposed that the spirit of the national video conference on flood and drought disaster defense work be conscientiously implemented, and the people's lives be fully protected.
The first is to further enhance the awareness of risks, concerns, and bottom-line thinking, and in-depth implementation of the new concept of "two adherences and three changes" for disaster prevention, mitigation, and relief, and make early arrangements and preparations to prevent and resolve major hidden risks.
Second, in the current situation of the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic situation, do a good job of preparing for floods, classify and refine measures according to high, medium, and low risk areas, and coordinate the advancement of various flood prevention preparations.
The third is to strengthen forecasting and forecast the climate trends and major flood conditions in advance this year to provide support for flood and drought disaster prevention decisions.
The fourth is to promote the water damage repair of flood control engineering facilities in an orderly manner. Under the premise of obeying the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control, we will do everything possible to promote the progress of water damage repair.
Fifth, conduct pre-flood inspections in a timely manner, carefully review the problems found during the inspections, analyze the reasons, and urge the implementation of rectification.
Sixth, to plan for the "black swan" events such as river floods, and put forward practical countermeasures.
The seventh is to implement strong supervision into the defense work, and increase the intensity of "four non-two straight" inspections by inspectors.
Eighth, strengthen capacity building and comprehensively improve defense against floods and droughts.
Yao Wenguang also pointed out that at present, the epidemic prevention and control has reached the most strenuous stage. All units should improve their political positions. While doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control, they should do a good job in preventing the Yellow River ’s anti-bullying work and various flood prevention preparations. Economic and social development goals and tasks provide strong support. The first is to do a good job of anti-bullying in the critical period of the Yellow River, and put reservoir dispatching, hydrological forecasting, data reporting and other requirements in place to provide a reliable basis for anti-bullying decisions. The second is to plan and make arrangements as early as possible to do a good job in all flood control preparations. The third is to focus on the three major tasks of the defense plan against historical floods, the integrated construction of forecasting and dispatching, and the annual dispatching plan. Relevant units must overcome difficulties and speed up the progress. Complete the defense plan against historical floods and integrate forecasting and dispatching by the end of March. Construction should be carried out as required, and the annual dispatch plan should pay more attention to pertinence, practicability and operability, and increase the guarantee for the safety of the Yellow River during the flood season.
