Emergency management department： build a database of rural disaster risks and hidden dangers, and accurately transmit early warning information to households.

　　Cctv newsOn the morning of February 15th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference to introduce the first national comprehensive risk survey of natural disasters and answer reporters’ questions.

　　The reporter asked, the countryside has always been a weak link in the prevention and control of natural disasters in China. Has this census involved this situation?

　　Chen Sheng, deputy director of the Office of the First National Comprehensive Risk Survey of Natural Disasters in the State Council and director of the Risk Monitoring and Comprehensive Disaster Reduction Department of the Emergency Management Department, introduced that in view of the risk characteristics of natural disasters in rural areas, three investigations were focused on: First, surveys covering rural disaster-causing factors and important disaster-bearing bodies such as population, houses, bridges and roads. The second is the investigation of comprehensive disaster reduction capacity of towns and communities. The third is to sample the people’s awareness of disaster risk and their ability to save themselves and each other with families as a unit.

　　At present, it is basically clear about the hidden dangers of rural disasters and the ability of grassroots disaster prevention and mitigation.

　　The next step is to consolidate the foundation of disaster prevention and mitigation in agriculture and rural areas, and work hard to transform the census results into the improvement of rural natural disaster prevention and control capabilities.

　　The first is to highlight the precise transfer and hedging. Combined with the information of township (street) disaster emergency shelter, disaster prevention and mitigation facilities, emergency equipment, etc. obtained from the census, the emergency evacuation signs and routes will be improved, and in case of sudden disasters such as extreme rainstorms, floods, flash floods and mudslides, the local authorities will be instructed to organize the masses to move quickly in advance, quickly avoid disasters and avoid risks, and effectively reduce casualties.

　　The second is to highlight accurate rescue. Integrate data information such as comprehensive material storage points, rescue forces, road network and disaster occurrence points into the "one map" of emergency command, promote the reasonable preset of power resources nearby, strengthen the efficient deployment of emergency rescue equipment and materials, and support the improvement of disaster emergency response and rapid disposal level.

　　The third is to highlight accurate monitoring and early warning. Guide the construction of a database of disaster risks and hidden dangers in rural areas, and support the accurate transmission of disaster early warning information to villages, households and people in combination with information on major natural disaster-causing factors, important facilities and key places, so as to improve the fine level of disaster monitoring and early warning.

　　The fourth is to highlight the improvement of comprehensive ability. Guide the completion of city and county single disaster and comprehensive disaster risk zoning and prevention zoning, delimit disaster risk areas, support rural development and construction to avoid major disaster risk sources, help plan and distribute disaster prevention and mitigation resources, and enhance rural comprehensive disaster prevention and mitigation capabilities.
