Guangming Daily, Beijing, June 15 (Reporters Chen Chen, Yao Yaqi) It is predicted that from June 15 to 18, there will be a new round of heavy rainfall in the southeast of China's northwestern region and southwestern region to Jianghan, Huanghuai, and Jianghuai. There are heavy rainstorms in most of the above areas, and heavy rainstorms in some areas. Affected by rainfall, some small and medium-sized rivers in the torrential rain areas of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River will have a flooding process, and some rivers may have super-alarm floods.
On June 15th, the National Defense Agency arranged the deployment of recent heavy rainfall prevention work. The National Defense Office issued a notice to the flood control and drought relief headquarters in Shanxi, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Chongqing, Guizhou, Shaanxi, and Gansu. It is required to attach great importance to this round of strong rainfall prevention and response work, closely monitor the changes of rain and water conditions, strengthen the analysis and judgment of consultation, grasp the coordination and coordination of prevention index and department linkage, focus on preventing mountain flood disasters caused by local heavy rainfall, and effectively strengthen the small and medium-sized rain areas Prevention of river floods and urban waterlogging, doing a good job in the safety of small and medium-sized reservoirs in flood control, strengthening dam inspection and defense, releasing early warning and risk avoidance information in advance, decisively transferring people in hazardous areas, and ensuring the safety of people's lives and property.
In order to do a good job in all aspects of flood and drought disaster prevention, the Ministry of Water Resources held a special meeting on June 15 to analyze and judge the recent flood situation and study and deploy the next stage of flood and drought disaster prevention work. The meeting emphasized that China has entered the flood season in an all-round way. Water conservancy departments at all levels should base their duties on flood control and drought relief, with the principle of “floods that exceed the standard and no chaos, no accidents within the standard, no accidents in the reservoir, no accidents in the reservoir, and no mass deaths or injuries in the flood disasters”. Goal, focus on four tasks. The first is to strengthen monitoring, forecasting and early warning, to increase the frequency of rainwater monitoring and forecasting, to strengthen the union consultation, to make short-term and near-term forecasting, to issue early warnings in time, to provide support for flood control operations, and to gain time for flood control and emergency rescue. The second is to focus on the prevention of the "three major risks". We must conscientiously formulate and improve the over-flood flood defense plan, effectively strengthen the supervision of the flood limit water level of large and medium-sized reservoirs, and scientifically and standardizedly carry out dispatch and application; strictly implement the "three responsible persons" and "small-scale reservoirs." "Three key links" to ensure the safety of the flood season, give full play to the functions of the mountain flood disaster monitoring and early warning system and the group measurement and group prevention system, rely on the three major operators, and issue early warnings in time to remind the local people's governments at the grassroots level to follow the "direction and run fast" The essentials of the organization are to do a good job of transferring risks. The third is to strengthen the responsibility of supervision and compaction. It is necessary to build a "trinity" supervision and inspection system for flood and drought disasters, which is to conduct unannounced inspections, on-site inspections, and supervision by working groups. Problems, urge localities to compact defensive responsibilities and implement defensive measures. The fourth is to strengthen the coordination and communication between the departments. It is necessary to strengthen the coordination and cooperation with the emergency departments, timely report real-time water information and forecast results; give full play to the professional advantages of the water conservancy department, and dispatch a team of experts to provide technical support for flood relief.
The Ministry of Water Resources will pay close attention to rain and flood conditions, strengthen monitoring, forecasting and early warning, strengthen on-duty duty and consultation and research, scientifically implement water engineering scheduling, and provide targeted guidance to all localities in the prevention of flood and drought disasters, and make every effort to protect people's lives and property. Safe and minimize disaster losses.
According to statistics, as of June 15, this year's flood disaster has caused 8.521 million disasters in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Chongqing and other 24 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), 495,000 emergency transfers and resettlement, and 187,000 emergency needs Life assistance; more than 7,300 houses collapsed and 138,000 were damaged to varying degrees; the affected area of crops was 622,000 hectares; direct economic loss was 20.67 billion yuan.
