Ready to respond to heavy rain due to the impact of storm No. 3
Forecasting that storm No. 3 (storm WIPHA) will cause heavy rain, Hai Phong Drainage One Member Co., Ltd. requested units operating pumping stations and tide-prevention sluices to regulate and lower water levels in ditches and lakes; test-run pumps to ensure good operation in all conditions when there is heavy rain caused by the storm.
Clear all drainage outlets, collect garbage at the manholes; remove duckweed and obstacles in the ditches and regulating lakes; prepare auxiliary flaps and sandbags at the tide-preventing sluices; prepare all available equipment, cranes, mobile pumps with a capacity of 1,000 m3/hour; arrange sludge suction trucks and pipeline cleaning trucks to be ready during the storm. Workers at the pumping stations work 24/7 according to assigned shifts...
In order to promptly and quickly direct the work of preventing flooding due to the impact of storm No. 3, the company has developed a detailed plan for each department and unit to deploy the task of operating the urban drainage system during the time the storm affects the mainland and after the storm has dissipated. Establish 3 inspection teams for storm prevention work before, during and after the storm, continuously reviewing and checking key areas for flooding until the storm is over.
