Guarding ＂Coal Transportation from the North to the South＂ —— A Different Water Spring Festival travel rush

　　News from Cangzhou, Central Broadcasting Network, February 2 (Reporter Wang Zhida, reporter from Cangzhou Taiwan, Wu Siwei) According to the Voice of China "Yangguang News", Huanghua Port, located on the coast of Bohai Sea in Hebei Province, undertakes the important task of "transporting coal from the north to the south". In 2018, the coal transported to East China and South China via Huanghua Port exceeded 200 million tons, ranking second in the country. As the Spring Festival approaches, the front-line staff of Cangzhou Maritime Safety Administration have tightened their strings.

　　Boarding, showing law enforcement certificates, and explaining the purpose … … A set of standardized procedures have been memorized by Zhou Jia and Ma Yunhe, partners of Shenhua Port Sea Patrol Law Enforcement Brigade of Cangzhou Dagang Marine Department. Ma Yunhe said that there are many items and detailed requirements for the inspection of docked ships. "Mainly ship inspection certificates, some life-saving fire inspection reports, some logbooks, engine logbooks and some inspections on pollution prevention. Mainly to ensure navigation safety and environmental protection. "

　　During the Spring Festival travel rush every year, it is also the period when the Bohai Sea is greatly affected by severe weather such as winter cold wave and strong wind, low temperature, freezing rain, snow and smog. In addition to boarding the ship for inspection, patrolling the sea is also a work that cannot be relaxed by the Maritime Safety Administration. John Zhang, captain of the maritime patrol law enforcement detachment of Cangzhou Maritime Safety Administration, said: "In stormy weather, many ships may be in danger: collision, grounding, fire and falling overboard. Of course, the probability is not great. In 2018, we did not have the above accidents. We have electronic cruise, boat cruise and three-dimensional air cruise. Various means are combined to comprehensively ensure water traffic safety. "

　　Huanghua Port, as a major energy export port, had a total of 17,900 sub-merchant ships passed the safety supervision of the Maritime Safety Administration in 2018, with an average of nearly 50 ships per day, ensuring the safe transportation of 288 million tons of goods, of which coal alone was as high as 210 million tons. In addition, Cangzhou Maritime Bureau also organized 5 maritime search and rescue operations, successfully rescued 39 people in distress, and the success rate of life rescue reached 100%.

　　Near the Spring Festival, compared with the busy land transportation and air transportation, the port is still much calmer, but for the members of the sea patrol law enforcement brigade, as long as the ship does not stop, they will not stop.

　　Zhou Jia is the deputy head of the Shenhua Port Sea Patrol Law Enforcement Brigade. He works in Cangzhou and is far away from his hometown of Wuhan. This year will be his first time to be here during the Spring Festival. He said: "We are on duty on New Year’s Eve, the first day and the second day, and the ship will not stop." Ma Yunhe, who had been on duty during the Spring Festival last year, also had a deep understanding of this. He said that the more holidays, the more you need to strengthen your duty and send more strength.
