In the Year of the Dragon, fireworks are shining. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the fireworks display staged in Baietan, Guangzhou, left a deep impression on the general public and tourists. As everyone knows, behind this brilliant and crowded crowd, there is the silent persistence of the firefighters, who have built a solid "safety barrier" in the dim lights.
Precise fortification, full deployment of firefighting forces.
It is reported that the fireworks preparations for the show are divided into production, transportation, loading and unloading, mooring and discharge 5 parts, in addition to production and transportation, the remaining 3 parts need the on-site supervision and duty of firefighters, since February 3 fireworks materials from the production of Liuyang City, Hunan Province to Guangzhou to February 11 gun barrel safety disassembly, firefighters have carried out up to 9 days of full protection.
In view of the characteristics of the large-scale, densely populated, long duration of the event and the high risk of fire and personnel accidents, we attach great importance to and make careful arrangements, set up a fire safety and security headquarters, study and judge the risks, and formulate an emergency rescue dispatch plan. The relevant person in charge of Guangzhou fire protection introduced. At the same time, Guangzhou Fire launched the "water + land" security mode to deploy the fireworks loading and unloading and mooring, and the fireworks display site to ensure the smooth holding of the fireworks display in an all-round way.
During the event, Guangzhou Fire sent a total of 33 groups of pre-prepared forces, including 68 fire trucks, 2 fire boats, and 436 fire rescue personnel to patrol and guard key areas.
Day and night, personal security is uninterrupted.
Behind this exquisite fireworks display, it is inseparable from the silent protection of many firefighters. As early as February 5, Li Risheng, a firefighter at the Hongshan Fire and Rescue Station in Huangpu District, and more than 20 other fire commanders and fighters opened the 24-hour security mode, and their main area was the fireworks loading and unloading operation site and the Hongshengsha Wharf in Huangpu District, and three fire trucks began to patrol non-stop.
When they first received the task, Li Risheng felt a huge pressure, every morning at six o'clock, they had to get up to start a busy day, until ten o'clock in the evening, they finished their tiredness, but the rest was not stable. "In the past few days, our working and living conditions have been very difficult, we need to live in a campervan, and we need to eat a simple bite, and then we quickly return to the fight, especially one day when it suddenly rained, the temperature plummeted at night, and everyone was shivering with cold. Li Risheng said, "But no one shouted tired, we carried out fire prevention inspections on nearby buildings every day, tested the fire hydrants and water intake docks, and laid fire extinguishing trunks at key points in advance, and set up two remote-controlled water cannons to ensure that we could respond as soon as possible when there was a dangerous situation." ”
Until February 10, more than 20 firefighters have been holding on to the Hongshengsha Pier for 8 days and 8 nights.
Escort along the line, and the water surface security is not lax.
Duty preparation, emergency drills, equipment maintenance ......At the time of the unity of thousands of families, Deng Hong, the captain of the "Suixiao 06" fireboat, and the team stuck to their posts and waited for the day.
It turned out that the "Suixiao 06" fireboat where he was located was mainly responsible for the pyrotechnic mooring operation in this security work, and the responsibility was heavy. Seven fireworks display boats need to be moved from Huangpu Hongshengsha Wharf to Baietan, Liwan District, and after the performance, they will be escorted back to the wharf, until the second day of the Lunar New Year, after the fireworks barrels are disassembled, they can be considered to have successfully completed the task.
The "Suixiao 06" fireboat is less than 300 meters away from the fireworks, and the pressure can be imagined. On the ship, Deng Hong meticulously checked the equipment on the ship to make sure it was intact and functional. "In order to improve the precision of the response, we have carried out enhanced plan drills in every link of fireworks loading and unloading and ship berthing. Deng Hong said that he was proud to be able to escort the fireworks display ship and bring a grand fireworks show to the public.
Mobile patrols, cross-strait duty to ensure safety.
Brilliant fireworks are a moment of family reunion, but for firefighters, it is a heavy duty to protect safety. As night fell, the flashing fire truck lights flashed, and a touch of flame blue shuttled through the streets and alleys, Zeng Weibao, a firefighter from Tongfu Fire and Rescue Station in Haizhu District, and his comrades-in-arms worked hard to monitor key areas to prevent emergency situations such as combustibles from ignition. At the same time, they also distributed leaflets to passers-by to carry out fire safety education.
As a firefighter, it is our bounden duty to protect everyone's safety, and we must use practical actions to stand at every post. Zeng Weibao said emotionally.
In this guarantee, Guangzhou Fire found three observation points on the riverside and set up an emergency rescue plan, so that once a fire occurs, it can mobilize fire rescue forces as soon as possible; Rescue points, as well as rubber boats and life-saving equipment, have been arranged on the Baietanjiang River to provide water safety. Guangzhou Fire has also strengthened the linkage with maritime, public security, emergency response, medical and other departments to ensure joint rescue in case of emergency.
In addition, Zhang Qingjian, the fire supervisor of the Liwan District Brigade, and the members of the joint logistics team of the district have not been dismissive, and have carried out fire safety investigations on more than 30 shops on the street in the core area, and timely urged the personnel of the place to implement the fire safety responsibility and fire safety responsibility system, equipped with sufficient fire extinguishing equipment, cleared fire hazards in advance, and carried out fire publicity and training to improve fire prevention awareness and ensure that there is no smoke around the activity.
The fire supervisors of the brigade also understood and mastered the key parts, building structures, road water sources, fire hazards, fire extinguishing and rescue measures and fire extinguishing and disposal plans of unsafe places around the activities, and carried out more than 40 times of familiarization with road water sources; organized and carried out 1 detachment-level water and land drill and more than 10 field drills; It has carried out more than 20 joint operations with micro fire stations, and urged all micro fire stations to strengthen their duty preparations.
It is precisely because of the perseverance of countless firefighters that there is this wonderful and safe fireworks show, and they are the warm guardians of the city of Guangzhou.
