February 26 is the Lantern Festival. Some citizens will choose to put Kong Ming lanterns to release hopes and wishes, but in the eyes of fire prevention workers, this is also releasing a mobile fire hazard. On February 23, the Fire Rescue Brigade of Daye City, Hubei Province, together with the Daye Emergency Management Bureau, the Public Security Bureau and other departments, launched the "Kong Ming Lantern" fire safety special rectification action in the city.
During the operation, the joint inspection team went deep into the shops along the street in Yuantou to clean up the stalls selling "Kong Ming Lanterns", and to criticize and educate the vendors, and at the same time publicized the harm of setting off "Kong Ming Lanterns" to the masses, guided the masses not to buy or fire "Kong Ming Lanterns", and jointly maintain the fire safety of the city during the festival. On the same day, the inspection team confiscated more than 80 "Kong Ming Lanterns" and more than 200 illegal fireworks and firecracker products in accordance with the law.
The fire department reminds that "Kong Ming Lantern" is an open flame, the external flame temperature is as high as 300 ° C, it is not easy to control after the discharge, which directly threatens the safety of aircraft, high-voltage power supply equipment, communication facilities, mountains and forests and various buildings, and it is easy to cause fire accidents.
