(HBO) – The provincial People’s Committee on January 22, 2019 issued Directive No.03/CT-UBND on stepping up efforts in natural disaster prevention and search and rescue work, with one of the key and urgent tasks being ensuring safety for local irrigational works and dyke system during the flood season in 2019.
For localities having reservoirs and dykes, the
provincial People’s Committee instructs them to take the initiative in
conducting inspection and evaluation of the safety level of the works, build
rational plan for water storage or restrict water storage in reservoirs in poor
conditions. Besides, they should have plans ready to ensure safety for
downstream residential areas and infrastructure, and strengthen the management
boards of irrigational works in order to guarantee the works are operated
safely before, during and after the flood season.
Upgrade and repair are being made for
road and underground work in Que Kho hamlet, Kim Boi district’s Tu Son commune
to ensure safety before flood season.
Head of the provincial water resources bureau Tran Quoc Toan said that the
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has directed its member units
to join hands with localities and competent agencies to carry out the Directive
No.03/CT-UBND. From the beginning of April, the department has organised
several working teams to supervise and speed up natural disaster prevention work
at districts, towns and irrigation works management companies. He described it
as the main task at present to reduce damage caused by natural calamities.
During 2017-2018, complicated weather conditions resulted in heavy losses in
both human lives and assets. According to the National Centre for
Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, this year floods are forecast to come later
than normal; however, localities should stand ready to respond to dangerous
weather conditions like thunderstorm, hailstone and whirlwind.
The centre said that between 10-12 storms and tropical low pressure are

four to five storms likely to affect the mainland./.
