In order to reduce the risk of forest fires, right from the beginning of the hot season, Trung Do Ward's organizations coordinated with Vinh - Cua Lo City Forest Rangers to clear the undergrowth under the pine forest canopy and the mausoleums. In the areas with mausoleums and graves, the authorities posted signs "no burning votive paper" to limit the risk of forest fires.

In particular, around the Quyết Mountain area, at 3 checkpoints for people entering and leaving the forest, there are always forest rangers and related forces on duty to control people bringing fire into the forest. Related forces regularly check 3 water tanks, 1 pumping station as well as test the water hydrants, always ready to handle any incidents that may occur.

Mr. Nguyen Huu Thang - Forest Ranger of Vinh - Cua Lo city said: In Quyet mountain area, the area of ​​​​vegetation treatment is still low, only reaching 4.5/50 ha, mainly treated in key areas such as the temple of Emperor Quang Trung, Vinh weather radar station, 5 mausoleums and residential areas. Therefore, the risk of forest fires is very high during the hot season.

To minimize the risk of forest fires, in addition to sending forces to monitor people setting fires in the forest, the Vinh - Cua Lo City Forest Protection Department is proposing to the Vinh City People's Committee to deploy firebreaks at Quyet Mountain, ensuring safety for the area of ​​Emperor Quang Trung Temple, Vinh Weather Radar Station, 5 mausoleums and over 400 households.
