Why coal mine safety must be dealt with hard

We must be ruthless, selfless, and ruthless when it comes to safety, and we must be cold-faced killers against the "five major disasters" in coal mines. In coal mines, for safety management, we implement "If you forget, I will remind you, if you violate the rules, I will stop you, if you are punished, I will be implicated." Coal mine regulations stipulate that if there is a minor injury accident, the quarterly safety award and year-end safety award of the entire coal mining team where the accident occurred will be cancelled; if there is a serious injury accident, the safety award of the entire mine where the accident occurred will be cancelled. ; If there is a casualty accident, the safety award of the entire mine owner will be cancelled.

In recent years, coal mines have introduced creative "punishment" education methods for responsible persons. First of all, the "three violations" personnel must pass the "three hurdles", that is, they cannot pass if the accident is not clearly traced, they cannot pass if the handling is not in place, and the majority of employees have not received education. Then, on the basis of passing the "Three Passes", they also used a trick--let the "Three Violators" go to the hospital to wait for the sick and injured. During this period, the "Three Violators" only received living expenses. Miners generally Reflected: "These tricks are really harmful. They not only allow the violators to truly experience the feeling of being punished for violating the regulations, but they also lose face and lose their wages. They will never dare to violate the regulations again in the future." "

The safety situation in coal mines is grim. Major accidents have occurred one after another. The alarm bells have sounded deafening to coal mining enterprises. Coal mining enterprises are trembling with fear and walking on thin ice all day long. Safety work cannot be done by impulsive behavior. The problem cannot be solved by concentrated activities, but by a rigorous scientific attitude, solid basic work, solid on-site management, and the seriousness and responsibility of the coal mine managers and employees.

2010. In 2016, Shanxi Province issued the "Several Provisions on Effectively Strengthening Current Coal Mine Safety Production Work" (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations"). The "Regulations" address the current new situation and exposed new problems in coal mine production safety, and address 12 aspects. The rapid development of the "Regulations", the strictness of the measures, and the strong operability of the "Regulations" are all rare in recent years. The promulgation of the "Regulations" will further refine the measures and effectively strengthen the safety production in coal mines. It is of great significance to clarify tasks and implement responsibilities and promote the transformation of the province's production safety situation from obvious improvement to stable improvement.

It is of great significance to provide an in-depth interpretation of the 12 articles of the "Regulations".

Article 1: It is necessary to further promote the merger and reorganization of coal mines, promote the effective implementation of merger entities, and strictly prohibit non-main body enterprises from organizing production in any name. 〔Interpretation〕This article is a regulation on coal mine mergers and reorganizations. /p>

At present, the province's coal resource integration and enterprise mergers and reorganizations have achieved important phased results. However, in terms of safety production, there are still imperfect safety management systems and imperfect safety management systems, which have a negative impact on the safety of integrated mines. Management is just a formality. The management team is in place in name but has not actually taken over. There are problems such as inability to manage and control. Especially the "6·3" Jincheng Coal Mining Group Jiaonan Coal Mine water leakage accident was caused by the main enterprise. Without substantive takeover, the original mine owner illegally organized production, leading to the accident.

The provincial secretary Yuan ** emphasized that the integration of coal resources and corporate mergers and reorganizations should be further promoted. , based on the "integration" in the previous paragraph, further improve the "integration" article. Provincial President Wang* emphasized that the current progress of coal resource integration and enterprise mergers and reorganizations in the province is uneven, and we must strive to build on the existing foundation.

All cities and coal group companies must strive to implement the provincial government’s policies and regulations on subject takeover, fund compensation, safety management, etc., and shall not hinder or delay the merger and reorganization work for any reason, and shall not make false claims. Agreements, false integrations, false entities and other phenomena shall not lead to the integration of coal mines and the closure of mines for illegal production due to the lack of entities, failure to implement responsibilities, and inadequate safety management. Non-mainstream enterprises are strictly prohibited from organizing production without authorization in any name.

Article 2: We must severely crack down on illegal and illegal production activities, and strictly prohibit illegal construction, illegal production, illegal operations, and super-capacity, super-intensity, and super-capacity production.

[Interpretation] This article is a provision for severely cracking down on illegal and illegal production activities.

Since 2009, the National Government has deployed and carried out safety production law enforcement actions, focusing on cracking down on illegal and illegal production and business activities. Shanxi Province has also launched a one-year special rectification work on production safety. However, the current “three non- and three super” behaviors in the coal mining field are still prominent. This year we will continue to carry out this work in depth on the basis of last year. The focus of the crackdown is on illegal and "three super" production behaviors, with the purpose of further standardizing the order of mineral resource mining.

Article 3: It is necessary to intensify the efforts to close mines and close them in strict accordance with the "six standards". Coal mines included in the closure plan are strictly prohibited from organizing production in any name and are strictly prohibited from providing production conditions to them.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the closure of mines.

This year, Shanxi Province has included 1,031 coal mines in the scope of closure. The number of closures is large and the tasks are heavy. Recently, the Provincial Government issued the "Notice on Issuing the Mine Closure Plan for the Merger, Reorganization and Integration of Coal Mining Enterprises in the Province in 2010" with Jinzhengbanfa [2010] No. 36, which clearly stipulates the list, number and time limit of mine closures. Local people are required to organize closures according to the standards and deadlines specified in the plan. It is strictly forbidden to organize production in any name when closing mines. All localities must conscientiously implement the plan, organize relevant departments as soon as possible, step up the formulation of closure measures and plans, organize closures in accordance with the "six standards" for mine closures, and ensure that the mine closure plans are implemented in place. At the same time, people must be dispatched to inspect the closed mines to prevent resurgence; for mines that are included in the closure plan but have not yet been closed, the power equipment of the main hoisting system must be dismantled, sealed and locked, and the power supply must be stopped. No unit is allowed to provide them with Production conditions, local governments and main enterprises must send people to monitor the production conditions 24 hours a day.

Article 4: Safety management regulations for coal mine construction projects must be strictly implemented, the safety responsibilities of the construction, construction, and supervision parties must be strictly implemented, and teams that do not have the conditions for safe production are strictly prohibited from entering coal mines to contract projects.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the safety management of coal mine construction projects.

Currently, the coal mines in Shanxi Province are in the transition period after the main takeover and the large-scale upgrade and transformation construction period. It is also a high-risk period in which adjustments are turbulent and accidents are prone to occur. The total number of mines constructed and renovated in the province this year exceeds 600. Judging from this year's accidents, the safety situation in construction and renovation of mines is not optimistic. Since the beginning of this year, there have been 10 infrastructure accidents in the province, accounting for 45% of the total accidents; 66 people died, accounting for 78% of the total fatalities. In particular, the occurrence of the particularly serious water leakage accident in Wangjialing on March 28 highlighted the phenomenon of "rushing to progress and deadlines" in the construction of mines. Construction projects were subcontracted at various levels, resulting in the entry of teams that did not have the conditions for safe production. Serious problems such as coal mine contracting projects. In November 2009, the Provincial Government issued the "Notice on Strengthening the Safety Management of Coal Mine Construction Projects" with the Jinzhengbanfa [2009] No. 172 document, which made advance arrangements for the safety management of coal mine construction projects and clarified the construction, construction and , supervise the safety responsibilities of the three parties, and strictly prohibit teams that do not have safe production conditions from entering coal mines to contract projects.

Article 5: It is necessary to strictly enforce the acceptance procedures and regulations for the resumption of work and production in coal mines, and insist on who checks and accepts, who signs, and who is responsible. It is strictly forbidden to produce without acceptance or signature.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the resumption of work and production in coal mines.

Since 2008, the General Office of the Provincial Government has successively issued the "Notice on the Implementation Plan for Standardizing the Acceptance Work of Resumption of Work and Production in Coal Mines" (Jin Zheng Ban Fa [2008] No. 9) and "On Strengthening the Resumption of Coal Mines Two normative documents such as "Supplementary Notice on the Acceptance Work of Resumption of Production" (Jin Zheng Ban Han [2009] No. 13) clarified the organizational leadership, acceptance standards, acceptance procedures and related requirements for the acceptance of resumption of production. This work is under the unified leadership of municipal and county governments and key state-owned coal group companies, and is led by relevant departments. The acceptance is organized in accordance with the principle of who checks and accepts, who signs, and who is responsible.

After passing the acceptance inspection, the local coal mine shall be signed by the deputy general manager in charge, and the provincial-level supervised group company shall be signed by the deputy general manager in charge. Production operations without acceptance and signature are strictly prohibited.

Article 6: It is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive management of coal mine gas, establish and improve the working system of "reliable ventilation, up to standard extraction, effective monitoring, and in place management". Improve production operations when gas exceeds the limit.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the comprehensive management of coal mine gas.

Gas is one of the major disasters in coal mines and the "number one killer" of coal mine safety. In 2009, 6 gas accidents occurred in Shanxi Province, killing 110 people, accounting for 54 of the total accident fatalities. To this end, coal mining enterprises must work hard to strengthen the comprehensive management of coal mine gas. In terms of "reliable ventilation", they must achieve reasonable systems, complete facilities, sufficient air volume, and stable air flow; Exhaust extraction, balanced extraction, and up to standard results; in terms of "effective monitoring", we must have complete equipment, accurate data, reliable power outages, and rapid disposal; in terms of "management in place," we must have clear responsibilities, perfect systems, strong execution, and strict supervision. , establish and improve the gas management system to ensure that production operations are carried out in areas where gas drainage meets standards.

Article 7: It is necessary to strictly implement the regulations on the prevention and control of water hazards in coal mines, insist on exploring when there is excavation, explore when there is mining, explore first before digging, explore first before mining, and it is strictly prohibited to mine before the hydrogeological data is unclear or before mining. Production operations without any prior investigation.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the prevention and control of water damage in coal mines.

In the process of coal resource integration and enterprise mergers and reorganizations, the main coal enterprises have integrated many small coal mines. These coal mines have problems such as low exploration level, lack of geological data, and unclear hydrogeological conditions. It brings great security risks. Since the beginning of this year, there have been four major water leakage accidents in Shanxi Province. In view of the current reality, the regulations put forward the water prevention and control principles of "exploring when there is excavation, exploring when mining is needed, exploring first before digging, exploring first before mining". The purpose is to strengthen water prevention and control during the mining process and effectively prevent water damage accidents. .

Article 8: It is necessary to strengthen coal mine fire prevention and management, strictly implement various regulations on fire prevention and management, and strictly prohibit production operations without preventive and management measures in place.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the prevention and management of coal mine fires.

A fire in a mine will not only burn down production equipment and facilities and cause loss of resources, but will also produce a large amount of high-temperature smoke and carbon monoxide and other harmful gases, causing casualties. Moreover, fires can cause gas explosions, causing greater disasters. Coal mining enterprises must follow the "Coal Mine Safety Regulations" to strengthen fire prevention and management, formulate fire prevention and extinguishing measures, and effectively prevent the occurrence of coal mine fires. It is strictly prohibited to organize production without preventive and management measures in place.

Article 9: It is necessary to strengthen coal dust prevention and management, strictly implement comprehensive dust prevention measures, and strictly prohibit production operations without water injection into the coal seam and without taking measures to prevent and isolate coal dust explosions.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the prevention and management of coal dust in coal mines.

Coal dust will not only burn, but also explode. At the same time, working in a harsh coal dust environment for a long time will cause miners to suffer from pneumoconiosis. The mining working face is the main source of dust and is also a key part of coal mine dust prevention. At present, the main means of controlling coal dust is to inject water into the coal body to reduce the amount of original coal dust generated during the mining process. It is also necessary to implement comprehensive dust prevention measures including the mining working face and its inlet and return air lanes to reduce the amount of coal dust and reduce the concentration of floating coal dust. The main transportation lanes, main return air lanes and other lanes of the mine must adopt air flow purification and cleaning. Or take various measures such as flushing dust, brushing grout, and explosion-proof facilities to effectively prevent and control coal dust.

Article 10: It is necessary to strengthen mine roof support and management of electromechanical equipment, strictly implement roof support measures and electromechanical equipment management systems, and strictly prohibit illegal operations and sick operation of electromechanical equipment.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on mine roof support and management of electromechanical equipment.

First, the function of support is to strengthen the strength of the surrounding rock (coal) near the tunnel, prevent it from being damaged and falling off, and limit the expansion of the broken zone. It is a fundamental measure to prevent roof collapse accidents. Only by providing timely support to suspended roofs in accordance with approved operating procedures can we effectively prevent empty roofs and production operations with insufficient support.

Second, electromechanical equipment is usually complex, and only correct maintenance and regular inspections can ensure its safe operation. At present, the degree of mechanization of coal mine mining in Shanxi Province is gradually improving, and further strengthening the management of electromechanical machinery and equipment has become an important link in coal mine safety work that cannot be ignored. In this regard, the first is to establish and improve the safety management system of electromechanical equipment and strictly manage daily operations; the second is to strengthen operational skills training and train high-quality personnel to operate and manage advanced equipment; the third is to strengthen the supervision of electromechanical machinery Routine maintenance and regular inspection of equipment to ensure the perfect operation of electromechanical equipment.

Article 11: It is necessary to strengthen the basic technical work of coal mine safety production, establish and improve the coal mine safety technical responsibility system headed by the chief engineer, and strictly prohibit the unauthorized use of technical measures and operating procedures without review and approval. Organization and implementation.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on the basic technical work of coal mine production safety.

To strengthen the basic technical work of coal mine safety production, the focus is to establish and improve the coal mine safety technical responsibility system with the chief engineer as the main body, and to establish design, geological survey, production technology, "one communication and three" directly managed by the chief engineer. Departments and institutions with key technologies such as "water prevention" and water prevention and control are responsible for the implementation of safety technical management work, strictly control the four important links of preparation, approval, implementation and execution of technical measures and operating procedures, and strictly follow the approved technical measures and operating procedures. Organization and implementation.

Article 12: To strengthen on-site management of coal mines and implement the safety management responsibilities of the "six major members", the mine leader must follow the command, the district captain must lead the shift, and the "three positions" personnel (i.e., those who are mainly responsible for Workers, safety production management personnel, and special operations personnel) must hold certificates to work. Employees must undergo training and pass examinations before they can work. Production operations that violate the above regulations are strictly prohibited.

[Interpretation] This article is a regulation on coal mine site management and safety training and assessment.

First, coal mine production safety work focuses on on-site management. Since 2009, Shanxi Province has implemented a system where the coal mine ventilation area (team) leader concurrently serves as the assistant mine director, which increases the number of mine leaders to six on the basis of the mine director and deputy mine directors for safety, technology, electromechanical and production, referred to as " Six members." Strictly implement the mine leader's follow-up command and the district leader's work. The focus is to ensure that the leader and the workers are at the same level, so that the leader directs on the front line and does not work on the front line, the situation is grasped on the front line, measures are implemented on the front line, and problems are solved on the front line. , The style of work is changing on the front line, with the purpose of strengthening on-site management.

Second, strict safety training and assessment systems should be implemented, focusing on improving people’s safety skills and safety awareness. Coal mining enterprises' "three positions" personnel must be trained by qualified training institutions and hold certificates after passing the job. Safety training for other employees must be implemented in accordance with regulations, so that employees can learn and master the necessary safety production knowledge and master their positions proficiently. Safe operation skills, improve self-protection and ability to handle emergencies.

Our city launched the "100 Days of Safety and Zero Death" campaign

Strike hard with an iron fist to rectify coal mine safety

In order to deeply learn from the recent frequent coal mine accidents, we quickly To reverse the unfavorable situation of safety production in coal mines in the city, on May 23, the city issued the "Notice on Issuing the Work Plan for 100-Day Safety and Zero-Death Activities in ** City Coal Mines" (Zhao Zhengfa [2011] No. 27), and on May 24 A mobilization meeting for the "100 Days of Safety and Zero Death" campaign was held in the city's coal mines for mobilization and deployment. From June 1 to September 8, 2011, 100 days were spent with the theme of "Treat hidden dangers with an iron hand and promote development scientifically". To achieve the goal of "zero accidents and zero deaths", the city's coal mine "100 Days of Safety and Zero Deaths" campaign was launched.

During the event, coal mines that have suffered fatal accidents will be suspended for 6 months for rectification; coal mines that have experienced major accidents or above will be closed by the county and district governments in accordance with the law; coal mines that conceal the occurrence of fatal accidents will be closed by the county and district governments in accordance with the law. . Conduct accident interviews with the leaders in charge of the counties where the coal mine where the fatal accident occurred, the main leaders of the coal industry management (safety supervision) department, and the legal representatives of the coal mine where the accident occurred, and sound the alarm; Leaders or leaders in charge are accountable. The ninth is to focus on publicity and reporting to create a strong momentum. Through news media, the Internet, slogans, work information and other forms, vigorously publicize the purpose and significance of the activities, work arrangements and task requirements, activity results, experience and advanced models, so as to create a strong public opinion atmosphere for the in-depth development of the activities.

Safety is a serious and clichéd topic. Every year, how many mines have gas explosions, roof collapses, wells and tunnels that are "water-permeable", and transport ramps and sports cars? How many young lives are innocently lost due to illegal operations and neglect of management? How many old and young people are shouting at each other, helplessly enduring the separation of life and death. The pain and pain of so many families have their happiness and hope vanished in an instant. There are two contents in improving safety in coal mines: one is to fight against "three violations", and the other is to "three no harm". The so-called "three violations" are illegal operations, illegal command, and violation of labor disciplines. "Three no harms" means not harming yourself, not harming others, and not being harmed by others. The anti-"three violations" are from top to bottom, and the "three no harms" are from oneself to others. There are many ways to ensure safety in coal mines, and these are just two of them. Coal, at least for now, still occupies an unshakable strategic position in energy. It is thousands of coal miners who support the future and prosperity of coal mines and ensure the energy needs for national construction and development. Safety maintains the life and health of every coal miner and safeguards the happiness and contentment of every family in the mine. "Come to work safely and go home safely" is the common wish of everyone. You are the hope of your parents. , is the support of the wife and the protector of the children. Your life does not only belong to you. You are not only a son, but also a husband and a father. Your "safety" is the source of happiness. Please always remember "life first, safety first, put an end to the three violations, and always maintain peace." I sincerely wish the steel men in the mines a lifetime of peace and success in building a beautiful home.
