According to Zhejiang Daily, on the 7th, Zhejiang Provincial Party Secretary Wang Hao inspected and supervised the flood prevention and typhoon work across various departments and systems. At the provincial power company, Wang Hao received a report on the flood prevention and typhoon preparedness, emphasizing the need to maintain a bottom-line and extreme thinking, to summarize and apply effective practices for typhoon defense, and to fully prepare for all tasks. He stressed the importance of ensuring that hidden dangers are adequately addressed, key users are thoroughly protected, and emergency response is prioritized, ensuring that any sudden incidents can be dealt with promptly and restored as quickly as possible. The province is currently in a critical period, facing peak power demand in summer, with electricity loads hitting historic highs. Efforts must be made to ensure power supply and operational scheduling, ready to respond effectively during critical moments to fully meet the electricity needs of residents, enterprises, and society. During a video connection with the provincial meteorological bureau, the provincial marine economy department, Zhejiang Maritime Safety Administration, and the provincial water resources department, Wang Hao emphasized the need to implement the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government's deployment regarding the defense against Typhoon "White Dolphin", focusing on thorough work implementation and collaborative efforts to ensure that all tasks are executed diligently and meticulously. He stressed the importance of prompt reporting, particularly strengthening forecasts on heavy rain, small watershed flash floods, geological disasters, and urban flooding, to further improve the timeliness and accuracy of forecasts. Strictly implement all maritime control measures, ensuring that all personnel are evacuated properly from maritime areas to guarantee absolute safety at sea. Take advantage of the "window period" before the typhoon's arrival, ensuring early, quick, and small-scale movements, developing control plans for rivers and lakes, and comprehensively implementing emergency measures to reinforce hazardous reservoirs and ponds, effectively building a solid safety line.
