Economic Observation Network According to the CCTV News client, on October 5th, the State Council Work Safety Committee Office and the Ministry of Emergency Management conducted video scheduling for safety precautions during the National Day holiday. The meeting reported on the typical problems and hidden dangers in transportation, fire protection, cultural tourism, hazardous chemicals, mining and other fields discovered by the State Council Work Safety Committee Office and the Ministry of Emergency Management during the pre National Day holiday period, and analyzed the prominent problems of inadequate risk control in some areas exposed by holiday accidents. Require immediate and urgent rectification of problems and hidden dangers discovered during undercover inspections, especially major accident hazards.

The meeting pointed out that in the second half of the National Day holiday, the task of security prevention is still very heavy:

  • We must attach great importance to the safety of return traffic and tourism, strengthen the supervision of key areas such as highways, national and provincial roads, and transportation hubs, and take measures to restrict and divert traffic in advance for sections and stations with high passenger flow, strictly preventing accidents caused by excessive gathering of vehicles and personnel.
  • Continue to strengthen the control of tourist attractions and large-scale event sites, and strictly prevent accidents such as stampedes from occurring.
  • At present, it is the busy autumn harvest season, and we must attach great importance to and strengthen the rectification of problems such as overloading of rural agricultural vehicles and illegal carrying of people. We should seize the opportunity to prevent risks such as resuming work and production after the holiday, conduct an early investigation of the situation of resuming work and production enterprises, urge enterprises to formulate plans, carry out education and training for returning personnel, and organize safety inspections of facilities and equipment.
  • Intensify the inspection of abandoned and blocked mines, and resolutely curb the rise of illegal mining.
  • Continuously carry out hazard investigation and rectification in key areas such as hazardous chemicals, fire protection, construction, special equipment, and fishing vessels.

The meeting emphasized the need to be vigilant about extreme weather risks. Pay close attention to the possible disaster impacts caused by heavy rainfall in some areas such as eastern Jilin, eastern Fujian, Yunnan, and Hainan. Relevant areas should strengthen monitoring and early warning, conduct rolling consultations and judgments, and provide point-to-point guidance to urge high-risk areas to take preventive measures in advance. In the central and eastern parts of Inner Mongolia, northern and western parts of North China, and other regions, efforts should be made to further strengthen forest and grassland fire prevention and control, enhance daily patrols and fire source control, and build a strong defense line for the people.
