Lanzhou District Enhances Fire Safety in Hazardous Chemicals Industry

Strategic Insights -

To ensure the continued stability of the regional safety situation, the Lanzhou District Emergency Management Bureau has launched a special rectification action to eliminate major risks caused by the lack of source control of fire safety in construction projects. The action aims to crack down on illegal acts such as unauthorized construction and commissioning without going through the fire design review, fire acceptance or filing inspection procedures. By conducting a "carpet-style" inspection on new, rebuilt, and expanded projects of key hazardous chemical production, storage, and operation enterprises, the district has completed the investigation of 10 enterprises, finding no outstanding problems such as incomplete fire design review and acceptance procedures. The Bureau will continue to maintain a high-pressure supervision posture and promote special rectification on a regular basis to build a solid "firewall" for fire safety in the field of hazardous chemicals.
