On December 25, in response to the recent "11.28" major gas explosion accident in Shuangyang Coal Mine in Shuangyashan City and the "12.20" major transportation accident in Kunyuan Coal Mine in Jixi City, the Office of the State Council Safety Committee interviewed the Heilongjiang Provincial People's Government in accordance with the relevant provisions of the "Implementation Measures for Safety Production Interviews (Trial)" of the State Council Safety Committee. Wang Xiangxi, deputy director of the State Council's Safety Committee and minister of emergency management, held an interview, stressing the need to thoroughly study Xi and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions on production safety, deeply absorb the lessons of recent accidents, take decisive measures, further consolidate the territorial responsibility for production safety, and reverse the passive situation of frequent and frequent major accidents in Heilongjiang Province as soon as possible.

The interview pointed out that since the beginning of this year, the situation of production safety in Heilongjiang Province has been very grim and complicated, and there have been three major accidents and 17 major accidents. In particular, since the end of November, two major accidents, the "11.28" gas explosion in the Shuangyang Coal Mine in Shuangyashan City and the "12.20" sports car in the Kunyuan Coal Mine in Jixi City, have occurred one after another, killing 11 and 12 people respectively, and there is a problem of concealment and false reporting. It has exposed that there are problems in local and enterprise problems such as lack of profound lesson learning, weak awareness of the rule of law, and insufficient fighting spirit, resulting in the recurrence of similar accidents, repeated prohibitions on accident concealment and false reporting, and prominent formalism problems such as the failure of safety permits, the "lax and soft" supervision and law enforcement, and the superficial investigation of hidden dangers.

The interview stressed that Heilongjiang Province should earnestly shoulder the major political responsibility of "promoting development and ensuring safety", urge all departments and all kinds of enterprises in the territory to make every effort to implement the measures for safe production, resolutely curb major accidents, and stabilize and control the situation of safe production in the province. It is necessary to implement the principle of "people first and life first" in the practical action of strengthening safe production, further enhance political acumen, persist in keeping our eyes downward and our strength sinking, and grasp the work of safe production with a sense of responsibility of "always being at ease". It is necessary to quickly carry out a full-coverage warning education activity on coal mine safety production throughout the province to promote the actual controller of coal mines to perform their duties.

The interview required that Heilongjiang Province should adhere to the red line of coal mine safety development, rectify the concept from the perspective, and avoid the formation of systemic risks. Pay close attention to the management of major disasters and vigorously promote the safety rectification of the mining industry. Pay close attention to the key links, carry out investigation and rectification of major accidents in the province's production and construction coal mines, increase and improve the investigation of hidden dangers in transportation links, control the number of people going underground according to regulations, and strictly control the acceptance standards for resumption of work and production. Maintain the high-pressure situation of cracking down on non-governance and violations, handle the relationship between supply and security, severely crack down on serious illegal acts such as concealed work faces and over-layer crossings, and improve mechanisms and measures that dare not conceal and cannot be concealed. Promote the improvement of intrinsic safety, and comprehensively use measures such as closure and exit, integration and reorganization, and intelligent transformation to promote the high-quality development of mines. It is necessary to vigorously improve the quality and efficiency of hidden danger investigation and rectification, dig deep and investigate carefully against the standards, find out the base number of major hidden dangers, establish a database, and implement closed-loop management of rectification and sales. Comprehensively review the safety permit and safety standardization, and review the safety production license, safety production standardization assessment, and resumption of work and production acceptance that have passed in the past three years. Strengthen the reverse investigation of regulatory law enforcement responsibilities, strengthen the rectification of safety supervision and law enforcement teams, pay close attention to the study and introduction of a responsibility reverse investigation mechanism, effectively enhance the quality of hidden danger investigation and rectification, and effectively improve the strong willingness and ability to find and solve problems.

The interview stressed that Heilongjiang Province should draw inferences from one case in light of actual conditions, and comprehensively grasp the work of safe production and disaster prevention, mitigation, and relief at the end of the year and the beginning of the year. In the field of hazardous chemicals, it is necessary to strengthen the safety supervision of chemical plants, oil and gas tank farms, and hazardous chemical transport vehicles, and in the field of construction, professional forces should be organized to carry out comprehensive investigations of all kinds of large-span structure buildings, and in the field of fireworks and firecrackers, safety risk control should be strengthened in production, transportation, storage, and fireworks in the peak season of production and marketing, and measures should be taken in advance to divert and divert traffic to prevent and deal with bad weather, and at the same time strengthen safety inspections of railway passenger ships and fishing vessels to prevent accidents. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen extreme thinking, pay close attention to the impact of low temperature rain and snow on transportation, electric power, urban operation, agriculture and animal husbandry and other fields, strengthen the investigation of hidden dangers in key areas and weak links, and ensure the normal production and life order of the masses.

At the same time, according to the "Measures for the Investigation and Handling of Major Accidents", the State Council Safety Committee decided to supervise the investigation and handling of the "12.20" major transportation accident in Kunyuan Coal Mine in Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province.

The day before the incident

The safety production acceptance has just been carried out

At around 15 o'clock on November 28, the Shuangyang Coal Mine of Heilongjiang Longmei Shuangyashan Mining Co., Ltd. had an accident that hit the ground pressure roof.

According to the National Emergency Rescue Center for Work Safety, roof accidents are caused by the deformation of roof rocks caused by mine pressure during the mining process to exceed the elastic deformation limit, and the roofing, collapse, and sheet gang caused by the destruction of roadway support. The rock burst accident is caused by the dynamic phenomenon of sudden and violent damage caused by the instantaneous release of elastic deformation energy in the shaft roadway or the rock mass around the working face. Roof and rock burst accidents are major disasters in coal mines.

Roof and rock burst accidents can cause direct injuries such as crushing and smashing, or indirect injuries such as suffocation. It is also easy to cause roadway blockage and trap people in the disaster area. It may also cause harmful gases to gush out, causing secondary accidents such as explosion and combustion.

It is worth noting that just one day before the incident (November 27), the coal mine involved had just undergone safety production acceptance.
