‘4 on the site’ and ‘5 ready’
City. Hue currently has more than 100,000 hectares of planted forests, of which more than 77,000 hectares have a high risk of forest fires during the heat season, especially the key areas of pine forests (more than 4,700 hectares) and native trees forests (more than 6,600 hectares).
Hue has identified five key forest fire zones, including Bac Hai van; Thuan Hoa district – Huong Thuy City; District of Phu Xuan, City of Huong Tra and National Highway 49 in the city of Huong Tra; To Luoi and National Highway 49 are located in the district of A Luoi; Phong Dien City – Quang Dien district.
The Department of Forest Protection of the City of Hue said that in the summer, the prolonged drought caused many reservoirs and streams to dry, causing the soil vegetation to dry, become flammable and cause forest fires. In particular, most of the planted forest surface is located in mountainous areas with strong slopes, which hinders displacement and approach to the fire, making the prevention and control work tasks even more complicated.
In recent times, Hue has proactively and synchronously deployed many drastic solutions to prevent forest fires, in which the motto “4 in the place” (forces, media, logistics, command) and “5 ready” (forces, media, logistics, command and information) have demonstrated remarkable efficacy.
Mr. Le Ngoc Tuan, Head of the City Forest Subdepartment. Hue said the slogans “4 in the place” and “5 ready” are basic principles to help mobilize and organize forces and means effectively in the place, quickly handling forest fire situations, especially in high -risk areas.
The city of egg has a relatively extensive surface of planted forests with a fire risk, often affected by the warm and dry climate and the winds of Laos in summer, which increases the risk of forest fires. In addition, the terrain is steep and complex, so the application of this principle allows forces and staff to unfold rapidly at the scene of the fire and, at the same time, through in situ forces, they can support rescue equipment to approach the fire effectively, Evaluated Mr. Tuan.

The forest coverage rate throughout the province reached 68.54%.
With the motto “It is better to prevent than cure”, since the beginning of the Seca Station, the Provincial Department of Forest Protection has advised the Provincial Popular Committee and the Steering Committee of the Sustainable Forest Development Program to indicate to the units, localities and owners of forests the implementation of solutions, such as: strengthen the inspection, guide the owners of forests to clean the forests and treat the vegetation fuels before the dry season; Strengthen PCCR shock equipment and base equipment; Prepare a forest protection plan according to the motto “4 on site”.
Currently, the Provincial Management Committee has ordered the rangers and owners of forests to periodically organize PCCC patrols, monitor fire spotlights by satellite images and receive information about fire alarms. In extremely hot days, the forces are on service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in the surveillance towers and in the field in key areas.

It is necessary to strengthen the inspection and supervision of fire prevention and control work, in which the prevention is the main axis and fire extinction is timely; Strictly control the use of fire in forests and its surroundings, especially the agricultural activities of felling and burning and the treatment of fire vegetation, especially during periods of heat and prolonged drought.
The localities also review and complement proactively the plans and strategies of fire prevention and control, clearly identifying the key areas with a high risk of fire; Organize forces and means according to the motto “4 in the place” and “3 Ready” (active prevention, timely response, overcoming consequences). When a fire is detected, it is necessary to quickly mobilize the local forces to control it, not allowing the fire to spread, enlarged or last for many days.
The Department of Agriculture and Environment closely monitors the evolution of the climate, especially in key areas with high risk of forest fires; Provide timely information to localities to proactively implement PCCCR plans; The rangers increase patrols, control, detect and care for the risks of forest fires; Organize fire security inspections in areas where fires occur frequently.
Willing to support local forces, equipment, fire points and command work information in case of large fires; Promote the application of high technology in prediction, alert and early detection of forest fires.
