The reporter learned from the Emergency Management Department that the Office of the National Forest and Grassland Fire Fighting Command has recently interviewed the heads of the people's governments of Sichuan Province and Liangshan Prefecture in Xichang City, Sichuan Province, regarding the recent frequent forest fires in Sichuan Province. Xu Ping, member of the Party Committee of the Emergency Management Department and director of the Forest Fire Bureau, interviewed.
In March, 42 forest and grassland fires occurred in Sichuan Province, an increase of 26 from the same period last year, an increase of 163%. In particular, a forest fire in Jingjiu Township, Xichang City, Liangshan Prefecture, caused 19 local firefighters to die, 3 local firefighters were seriously injured and some houses were burned, causing great losses to the lives and property of the people. One year after the "30.30" last year, Liangshan Prefecture once again suffered heavy casualties in fighting forest fires. It is distressing and the lessons are extremely profound.
The interview pointed out that Sichuan Province and Liangshan Prefecture do not have a good understanding of the new situation, new tasks, and new requirements faced by the forest and grassland fire prevention and control work. There is "broad, loose, and soft" control of the fire source. There are many problems and weak links such as insufficient rate, imperfect command system and imperfect plan mechanism.
The interview required that we should earnestly learn the lessons of the forest fire accidents in Muli and Xichang, earnestly integrate our thoughts and actions into the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping ’s important instructions and instructions, and do a good job in forest and grassland fire prevention and extinguishment. To strictly implement the responsibility of prevention and control, in accordance with the requirements of "party and government responsibility, dual responsibility, joint management, and accountability for dereliction of duty", party and government leaders at all levels must personally and personally grasp and strictly implement local party committee and government territorial management Responsibilities, supervision responsibilities of industry departments, and responsibilities of the main body of business units, compact and compact the responsibilities of fire prevention and extinguishment at all levels of counties, townships, and villages, and promote the implementation of various work arrangements. It is necessary to improve the working system and mechanism, and in accordance with the spirit of “basic correspondence between the top and the bottom” of the institutional reforms, pay close attention to the establishment and improvement of all levels of forest and grassland fire prevention and extinguishing command institutions, improve the organizational system, enrich the command institutions, and strengthen the basic capacity building.
The interview emphasized that it is necessary to vigorously promote forest and grassland fire prevention and fire prevention education to enter enterprises, communities, rural areas, schools, and families, popularize scientific fire prevention, safe fire use, and emergency risk avoidance common sense, and create a strong atmosphere for national fire prevention. It is necessary to arrange the deployment in accordance with the National Forest Defense Index Office, conscientiously organize and carry out special actions to control wild fire sources, and promptly plug loopholes, blind spots, and dead ends. We must always adhere to the idea of safety first, put the lives of the people and firefighters in the first place, strengthen the construction of professional forces and equipment, and effectively improve the ability and level of ensuring safety.
