Agricultural enterprises of the Autonomous Republic Crimea one of the first in Ukraine enter a harvest harvest season. The big effort of grain-growers is attached to cultivation of grain crops. But only strict observance by heads of agrarian sector of economy of Laws of Ukraine About labor protection, About fire safety, About traffic and other legislative regulations will allow our landowners to reap during the preharvest and harvest periods a crop without human losses, fires and road accidents.
Grain-harvesting campaign of 2007 showed that at the enterprises of agro-industrial complex of Ukraine there were 30 fires from which by agricultural enterprises it is received only a direct loss for the sum of 0,5 million hryvnias, fire destroyed 137 hectares of a standing corn.
The main reasons for emergence of fires in agrarian and industrial complex of Ukraine are: violation of the rules of fire safety at operation of electroinstallations (34 % from total); careless handling of fire (30 %); violation of the rules of fire safety at carrying out electrowelding works (9 %); malfunctions of the production equipment, violation of engineering procedure of production (7 %), including, owing to: violations of production schedules, shortcomings of a design, manufacturing and installation of the production equipment, malfunction or lack of the iskrogasitelny equipment, malfunction of system of cooling of devices, friction of surfaces and other reasons.
In agricultural enterprises of 14 regions of Ukraine there were 170 fires at which 8 workers were lost. The direct material damage made 6,8 million hryvnias. Burned down: about 400 units of agricultural machinery; about 1,5 thousand hectares of crops, 4,5 thousand tons of rough forages; 400 hectares of the wood; over 2500 buildings.
During carrying out harvest works of 2007 in agricultural enterprises of the Autonomous Republic Crimea the following violations of the rules of fire safety took place: the width of an opashka of fields practically in all agricultural enterprises was less than 4 meters, and in some cases took place the admission to work of harvest equipment without iskrogasitel, fire extinguishers, with a podtekaniye of combustive-lubricating materials; there were no protivovopozharny links; public officials weren’t trained according to the program of a fire and technical minimum; with the persons occupied on cleaning, fire-prevention instructing weren’t carried out, there was no physical protection of fields etc.
Annually cases of ignition of grain repeat. Having enclosed 1-2 % from spent funds for the solution of questions of fire safety, all this could be prevented.
Last year practically in all without an exception areas of the republic deliberate burning of an eddish and the straw remains on fields according to instructions of heads of farms that leads to fires on the next fields, to shutdown of overhead power transmission lines of a high voltage, and also to fires of wood plantings took place. In this regard there was a threat of life and to human health in the cities and the villages located close with grain massifs. The significant material and ecological damage was caused to the state. So, the quantity of the registered facts of burning of an eddish in 2007 made 223 or, in comparison with 2006, increased in 2,5 times. The fire area made more than 1000 hectares, and the general damage exceeded 1 million UAH. Because of burning of an eddish and the straw remains at which a large number of a smoke is allocated, visibility on the main highways owing to what on highways Kharkov-Simferopol, Simferopol-Sevastopol, Simferopol-Feodosiya in 2007 occurred a number of serious road incidents in which people suffered worsened.
At preharvest meeting of heads of the enterprises, establishments and the organizations of agro-industrial complex of the Autonomous Republic Crimea, Klepinino led to page of the Krasnogvardeysky area, 06.06.2008, representatives of the relevant departments made statements, that this year from bodies of the State fire supervision to heads of farms who will allow burning of an eddish and the straw remains, according to Code Art. 77-1 about administrative offenses of Ukraine, drastic measures of administrative influence will be applied, and materials will go to bodies of prosecutor’s office for initiation of criminal cases.
The special attention is necessary for turning on carrying out harvest works by farmers and tenants which have no harvest equipment, a fire-prevention link, places of storage of the grown-up crop. As a rule, such businessmen try to save on everything, without carrying out an opashka of the field, involve the harvest equipment which has not passed preliminary check about a pozharobezopasnost, and in some cases and being in a pozharougrozhayushchy condition, endangering both the grown-up crop, and crops of the agricultural enterprises located in the neighbourhood.
So far heads of objects of storage and processing of grain didn’t carry out in full work on the prevention of explosions and fires in agricultural enterprises. Installation and automatic fire alarm repair, processing by fireproof structure of combustible designs of buildings and constructions, providing buildings and territories by primary fire extinguishing means, repair and service of electric equipment isn’t made, etc. Earnest request to heads of these objects: eliminate all violations on fire-prevention protection and bring objects into a fireproof condition.
Now, before the beginning of cleaning grain, in each area it is necessary to analyse a situation on the organization of fire-prevention protection of a new crop and in due time to take necessary measures, having paid special attention to performance in full instructions of bodies of the State fire supervision; high-quality carrying out training according to the program of a fire and technical minimum, instructing with experts and workers of farms who will take part in cleaning, preparation of a crop and rough forages; technical serviceability of grain-harvesting cars, units and autotractor equipment, providing with their serviceable iskrogasitel, primary fire extinguishing means and adaptations for standing corn suppression according to norms; timely carrying out opashka of fields in width not less than 4 meters; performance of fire-prevention actions on objects of storage and grain processing, formula-feed plants, having paid prime attention to a condition of an electroeconomy, serviceability of systems of fire-prevention automatic equipment, molniezashhity, to water supply, notification system about a fire, telecommunication; creation in each harvest group of a fire-prevention link; installation of signs of fire safety; carrying out zaslushivaniye at meetings of staffs on cleaning of a new crop of heads of the agricultural enterprises which are not carrying out requirements of fire safety.
Above-mentioned actions are a necessary minimum for heads to save up a new crop from fires. Cleaning – is a peculiar examination for those who grew up bread, and for those who is obliged to collect, process it, to
