In order to effectively test and improve the ability and level of maritime emergency assistance, on October 9, Yangzhou Maritime Bureau carried out the maritime boat emergency drill activities in conjunction with the requirements of the Jiangsu Maritime Safety Administration's “Equipment Management Month” activity.
First, according to the key projects of water safety supervision in the jurisdiction, they should carry out targeted activities such as sea patrol boats and their equipment emergency plan drills and assessments. In view of the intensive characteristics of water passengers in the ferry boats in the jurisdiction, the organization carried out drills such as emergency evacuation, life-saving and personnel rescue, and used the actual drills to detect the mastery of the maritime emergency personnel on the equipment, and recorded it the problems existing in the drills in detail.
The second is to further strengthen the daily inspection of the loading and unloading operations of hazardous chemicals terminals, and urge enterprises to actively carry out leakage and oil spill emergency drills by using oil booms and oil absorbent pads in accordance with the anti-pollution emergency plan, and improve the response speed of the emergency team and the proficiency of equipment operation.
The third is to strengthen the post-evaluation of emergency drills, and find and correct the weak links and deficiencies in the emergency response through drills and further improve the speed of emergency response. After the end of drill, the head of the Maritime Department should further requested law enforcement officers to be skilled in using law enforcement recorders, VHf and other law enforcement equipment. The crew of the boat must memorize the life-saving fire alarm and the use of equipment in the sea patrol boat. The equipment should be reported and repaired in time to ensure that all equipment in the emergency work can be effective.
In the next step, the Yangzhou Bureau will continue to strictly follow the requirements of the “Equipment Management Month” of the Jiangsu Maritime Bureau, strengthen the technical guidance for its own equipment and sea patrol boats, and urge the crew to actively carry out the daily maintenance of the sea patrol boat to ensure the good airworthiness of the ship and the equipment.
