The passing of life is heartbreaking, and the lessons of the fire are profound. Fire safety is directly related to the safety of people\’s lives and property and the overall situation of economic and social development. It is an important safety barrier to protect people\’s livelihood and promote development.

\”Fire prevention responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai, and the alarm bell must be ringing forever.\” After the institutional reform in 2019, the Municipal Construction Bureau undertook the responsibility of fire protection design review and acceptance management of construction projects. Under the overall leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, it has always been With the spirit of \”nailing nails\”, plug loopholes and grasp safety, build on key work directions such as gathering strength to strengthen the team, creating standards to fill gaps, streamlining process approval, hone skills in projects, and completing fire inspection work experience in practice from zero to zero First, strictly implement regulatory responsibilities. At the same time, we have jointly carried out a series of work with the municipal fire rescue department to prevent and resolve major fire safety risks in Xiamen from the source, strictly adhere to the fire safety red line for approval of construction projects, and continue to promote the new responsibilities from \”can be taken over\” to \”manage well\” Change and strive to create a new situation in fire inspection and inspection of construction projects.

Carry and do well

Focus on the areas of people\’s livelihood concerns to launch a number of first-class systems in the province

With a sense of respect for life and responsibility for the people , always keep fire safety in mind and firmly hold it in your hands – after taking over the fire inspection and management responsibilities of construction projects, the Municipal Construction Bureau promoted the implementation of work with a high sense of responsibility and mission, and specially established a special action to improve fire inspection and management of construction projects The leading group is \”in charge\” by the director, and coordinates the legalization, standardization, processization, standardization and informatization of the internal management system, continuously improves the capabilities of the fire inspection team, and better performs the fire safety management responsibilities assigned by laws and regulations.

DeepThe \”two linkages\” have formed a \”one game of chess\” in the city\’s fire inspection. While continuously strengthening its own \”internal strength\”, the Municipal Construction Bureau also accurately realized that the fire inspection work involves industries There are many categories, many links, and strong professionalism. We need to gather together with relevant departments to perform their duties and cooperate in coordination. We must not only keep the fire inspection and approval of construction projects, but also effectively implement supervision and management of the fire protection project construction process. Responsibility, effectively connect the supervision of the entire process of fire protection projects. To this end, the Municipal Construction Bureau has deepened the \”two linkages\” and achieved \”urban and district linkages\” vertically. By establishing information sharing, training and exchanges, consultation and coordination, supervision and inspection at the municipal and district levels, we will improve the review and verification from top to bottom. Strengthly promote \”departmental linkage\” communication, strengthen linkage with fire rescue, emergency, education, cultural and tourism departments, and jointly carry out standard preparation, information sharing, collaborative cooperation and other work.

In the communication and collision with different departments, a series of \”sparks\” of wisdom burst out one after another – the \”Guidelines for the Fire Protection Design of Historical Style Buildings in Xiamen (Trial)\” was issued to refinely improve the level of fire safety in buildings. \”Fireproof Clothes\” tailored for 439 historical buildings; compiled the \”Xiamen City Fire Protection Design and Review Guidelines for the Renovation of Existing Buildings\” in sections to guide the transformation of existing buildings into nursing homes, nurseries, commercials, hotels, schools, etc.; issued the \” Fire safety guidelines for parking and charging places of electric bicycles in Xiamen City (Trial)”, standardizes the construction of parking and charging places of electric bicycles, eliminates safety hazards for standardized management of electric vehicles from the source… Under the leadership of the Municipal Construction Bureau, focus on fire safety concerns about people\’s livelihood In terms of fields, Xiamen City has innovatively formulated a number of provincial first systems and continuously established and improved the institutional framework.

Hear a heavy blow to carry out special operations

Extinguish suspicious \”Mars\” hidden dangers from the source

A indoor theme amusement place in Niyen yen, Huli District, related Fire acceptance and fire security inspection materials cannot be presented, and they were eventually ordered to be suspended due to failure to complete the relevant fire protection permit procedures; a seafood restaurant on Haicang Avenue, Haicang District, will be further investigated and in accordance with the law after verification. Handling… Since June, the Municipal Construction Bureau and the Municipal Fire Rescue Detachment have jointly carried out law enforcement actions to investigate and deal with a number of construction projects that have not been reviewed, accepted or registered by the construction department, and have been put into use in business without the fire protection design. Project illegal acts.

This is one of the most critical links in the special action to improve fire inspection and management of construction projects organized by the Municipal Construction Bureau this year, including hotels, escape rooms, script killing, office space, and factory buildings. Major venues, due to the possible existence of major fire safety hazards, are included in the top priority of concentrated investigation and rectification and joint law enforcement. During the special operation, law enforcement personnel formulated different investigation priorities in advance. \”Strive to truly check for omissions and fill in the gaps and prevent problems before they happen.\” said the relevant person in charge.

Since the special operation was launched in June this year, a total of 1,836 projects have been investigated and rectified, and illegal projects have been classified and dealt with, and ordered to stop use and make an appointment.Talk about warnings or case investigation and punishment, educate a batch, warn a batch, punish a batch, urge relevant projects to actively include them in fire inspection and supervision, and focus on handling 35 illegal projects. At the same time, we will deeply analyze illegal cases, find loopholes in fire inspection and management, optimize them in combination with existing policies and systems, and make up for policy shortcomings. Next, the special action will continue to be carried out.

Implementing the concept of \”deregulation, supervision and service\”, the Municipal Construction Bureau not only keeps the \”safety check\” in the fire inspection process, but also works as a \”server\” and takes multiple measures to promote the project to start quickly and put into use early. Not only will a construction drawing design technical service team be established, a technical assistance mechanism for the design of major key projects be supervised and guided to implement construction according to drawings and standards, but also innovatively implement technical door-to-door guidance services before acceptance to help the project pass the acceptance quickly and put into use as soon as possible. In addition, establish a list of fire protection design technical review exemptions, implement a fire protection design quality commitment system, improve the construction of a credit management system, further promote more optimization of approval processes, more efficient review and inspection services, and faster project generation, and realize regulatory capabilities and business in the field of fire protection inspection. The environment is improved.

Strengthen responsibility and improve further

Expand the \”circle of friends\” and gradually establish a new situation of joint efforts of multiple departments

Add confidence, know worries, strengthen responsibility, and work While achieving a series of remarkable results, the Municipal Construction Bureau has focused on the implementation of work on the one hand and continuously improving on the other hand, sorted out problems and faced them directly, and created a new situation in fire inspection work with a higher position, breaking new ways and thinking of New ways, new ways to do something.

Promote the improvement of regulatory efficiency

Administrative law enforcement forces need to be strengthened

With the continuous development of the economy and society, urban renewal construction is accelerating, and more and more constructions are being carried out. Engineering fire safety issues are becoming increasingly prominent.

In order to adapt to the new situation of economic and social development and meet people\’s growing demand for safety, fire law enforcement reform is still being promoted. The \”Fujian Provincial Fire Protection Regulations\” that will be implemented in September this year and the \”Interim Regulations on Fire Protection Inspection and Management of Construction Projects\” that will be implemented in October have put forward higher requirements for the construction department. The fire protection design review and acceptance process for construction projects should be more standardized and the review should be Better rigorous, the intensity of the supervision and inspection of fire protection design review and acceptance supervision and inspection law enforcement punishment will gradually increase, and the pressure from the construction department will also increase day by day.

But there is a contradiction that during the investigation, the reporter found that fire inspection and management of construction projects, as a new responsibility undertaken by the Xiamen Municipal Construction Department, has led to the administration of the city and district levels due to objective issues such as insufficient staffing. There is a shortage of law enforcement forces.

The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Construction Bureau told reporters that the superiors are currently asking for research on this issue, and hopes to further enrich the team through measures such as adding institutions and departments and staffing to promote further improvement of supervision efficiency.

Promote the further improvement of the regulatory chain

The collaboration channels between departments need to be expanded urgently

Ensure fire safety is not a matter of one person. We cannot fight each other. We need to work together. It\’s twice the result with half the effort, especially the department is indispensableThe \”perfect combination\” between them.

According to the survey of the Municipal Construction Bureau, the fire safety hazards in Xiamen\’s construction projects have a significant characteristic of large quantities and wide ranges. A large number of projects have not been applied for inclusion in supervision, involving public security, industry and information technology, education, culture and tourism, etc.15 Fire safety hazards exist in the places where the heads of various industry departments are in charge. Although a liaison and coordination mechanism has been established with relevant industry authorities and districts, towns (streets), a large number of safety supervision mechanisms still need to be studied in depth and improved continuously. The task is arduous and urgent, and it must be reported to the municipal level for support and resolution.

\”In order to prevent and resolve major fire safety risks in Xiamen construction projects from the source, when relevant industry authorities issue industry licenses, they should focus on the situation where the buildings and places comply with relevant fire protection laws and regulations, and Timely inform the construction and fire rescue departments at the same level of the situation that does not comply with fire safety regulations, so as to form a good situation where all relevant fire safety departments work together to manage them. \”The Municipal Construction Bureau stated that it will further expand the \”circle of friends\” and gradually establish relevant departments with them. The fire safety information notification and law enforcement cooperation mechanism will further improve the supervision chain.

What is fire inspection?

The fire protection design review and acceptance work of construction projects is an important safety barrier before the project is put into use. The process is complex and the responsibility is heavy.

The fire protection design review and acceptance of construction projects includes two stages of administrative permits, one is the fire protection design review stage before the project construction, and the other is the fire protection acceptance stage after the project is completed, which is divided into the front end of the project construction and At the end, both are indispensable.

Zhou Xingshou, a second-level inspector of the Municipal Construction Bureau, uses the human body as an image metaphor. He said that if a building is compared to a person, then fire inspection is like a genetic screening before it was conceived. After understanding possible potential pathogenic risks through advance diagnosis, then formulating diagnostic and treatment plans will be formulated, and ultimately promoting this new life. Thrive. The focus of fire inspectionIt is about laying a solid foundation for \”factory\” and focusing more on the long-term. It is the foundation stone for a project to be healthy in fire safety. Fire fighting and fire fighting is more like a sudden acute disease in the human body during its growth, and it requires urgent treatment to avoid deterioration. Both are based on ensuring the safety of people\’s lives and property, but they are fundamentally different in the intervention stage, the focus of attention and the way of disposal.
