Chapter 559: An Accident That Shouldn't Happen(1/2)
After entering September, several accidents occurred in Xigui that should not have happened and were completely avoidable. Although the accident did not cause huge economic losses, it did cause great harm to the person responsible for the accident and the victim of the accident.
It caused a heavy blow to the family and brought disasters and misfortunes to their families that would affect their entire lives.
The first accident was an electric shock accident. At about 10 a.m. on September 5, an accidental electric shock occurred at a construction site in Langtianba Township. An unloaded dump truck moved forward before the carriage could fully fall, and the carriage got stuck on the construction site.
The driver was electrocuted to death due to a 10kV high-voltage line overhead.
After receiving the accident report, Mu Yi and the others rushed to the scene of the accident immediately to investigate. When they arrived at the scene, they saw a dump truck parked on the dirt road, and one end of the carriage that had not yet completely fallen was hung on a platform four to five meters above the ground.
On the high-voltage line, not far from the back of the carriage, is a pile of sand and rocks unloaded from the carriage. There are ablation marks on the wheels of the carriage. A middle-aged man is lying on the ground on the left side of the cab. According to on-site investigation
It was learned that the middle-aged man was the driver of the car and had died.
An on-site witness told Muyi and the others that at around 10 a.m. that day, the dump truck involved in the accident was transporting sand and gravel to the construction site. Before all the carriages could fall down, the driver hurriedly drove forward. One end of the lifted carriage was
It caught the high-voltage wire above the construction site, and there was a crackling sound of wire explosions and electric sparks. At the same time, the wheels were also ignited. The driver of the dump truck quickly stopped and jumped out of the car. He fell down as soon as one foot touched the ground.
He fell to the ground. After everyone quickly notified the power company to cut off the power, they came to the dump truck to rescue him. Unfortunately, the driver was dead.
After on-site investigation, the forensic doctor found that the driver got out of the car and received an electric shock after his feet touched the ground, resulting in death.
Two tasks were immediately carried out on site. The first was to conduct an on-site survey to find that the distance between the contact point between the dump truck's railing and the 10kV high-voltage line and the ground was 4.82 meters. After the survey was completed, the accident vehicle was removed and the distance between the 10kV high-voltage line and the ground was measured to be 4.65 meters. The second was to conduct an on-site survey.
The family of the deceased requested that the driver's body be sent back to his home, and funeral arrangements were handled according to custom, so the government staff of Langtianba Township and the cadres and masses of the driver's village helped to send it back.
After the on-site investigation was completed, the power department performed emergency repairs and restored power. The accident investigation continued.
After investigation, it was found that Cheyi Village, Langtianba Township, was implementing a village road hardening project. The owner was Cheyi Village. The driver was a villager from Cheyi Village. His family had good economic conditions. He had just bought a dump truck and was going to the hydropower station construction site.
I make money by moving earth. I happened to meet Murakami building a road, so I came to help. I just pulled a truck of sand and rocks to unload, but before I had driven far, one end of the tilted truck got caught on the high-voltage line above the construction site? What happened?
caused this electrocution death.
The cause of the accident was very simple. The driver was careless. He drove forward without putting down the cargo box completely. As a result, he hit the 10kV high-voltage electricity above the village road that was about to be cemented and electrocuted himself to death. The driver himself said
There is an inescapable responsibility for this fatal accident. But, other units? Are other personnel responsible? Does this require further investigation?
The answer is need. Because the person is dead? For the family members of the deceased? The backbone of their family is gone. The sky has collapsed. What will happen in the future? There are two elderly people at home? Four children, big and small...
After the family members of the deceased brought the deceased home, they did not rush to bury the deceased. Instead, they summoned many relatives and friends to go to the power company to seek an explanation.
Immediately, the contradictions in the aftermath came to the fore. The county government held an emergency meeting overnight and set up a working group to deal with the aftermath. However, the core task was to quickly investigate and clarify the relevant responsibilities in this accident.
Here comes the question. The conclusion of the accident investigation by the Work Safety Supervision Bureau is very important. The Work Safety Supervision Bureau has also become the focus of the storm. In fact, the purpose of the family members of the deceased is very simple? They just want the power company to lose money. But why should the power company pay money?
Their reason is that the power company's electricity electrocuted the driver. If the power company's wires were not there? The driver would not have been electrocuted.
Although this reason does not sound very sufficient, everyone still sympathizes with the families of the deceased who have lost their loved ones. However, a scientific, objective and fair investigation is still needed to clarify the responsibilities involved.
This requires an in-depth and painstaking investigation. Although everyone knows that the driver should be responsible for this fatal accident, is he fully responsible? Are the power company, village committee, etc. responsible? Everyone has no idea.
end.
It was really a challenge for Mu Yi to investigate this accident clearly. After all, he was not an electric power expert. So on the one hand, he invited electric power experts to provide technical guidance, and on the other hand, he conducted a more in-depth and detailed investigation.
After rigorous investigation. First, according to the power industry standard of the People's Republic of China "Technical Regulations for the Design of Overhead Distribution Lines 10kV and Below" (DL/T 5220-2005), the minimum distance between 10kV high-voltage line wires and the ground or water is for residential areas.
6.5 meters, 5.5 meters in non-residential areas, and 4.5 meters in areas with difficult traffic.
Areas with difficult transportation refer to areas that cannot be reached by vehicles and agricultural machinery. The area where the village road is to be built in Cheyi Village, Langtianba Township, was originally a rotten field (swamp) with a lot of peat soil underneath. The peat soil is in Xigui
It is also called "cow dung carbon" locally.
Not to mention vehicles and agricultural machinery cannot reach here, but people rarely walk here for fear of being trapped in the swamp. The erection of 10 kV high-voltage line wires is constructed according to standards.
Later, the Toyota Development Company came to Xigui to develop peat soil mines. Although their mining area was in Jinshan Township, Langtianba Township also has rich peat soil deposits. And the villagers have always dug "cow dung carbon" to burn fires and keep warm.
Habit. Seeing that the "cow dung carbon" of the past has become today's "peat mine", it can still be sold for money. Therefore, everyone comes to dig for "cow dung carbon".
The excavated "cow dung carbon" is directly dried on the side of the road or in the fields, dried in bags, and sold to Toyota in exchange for money. In this way, everyone is frantically digging "peat mines" like gold mining, and then
Many huge mine pits were soon dug.
The "peat mine" of Langtianba happens to be located in the gap between two mountains. It is dug on one side and the mountains on both sides are squeezed. The "peat mine" is continuously squeezed out. Over time, the rotten bubbles
The water level in the fields dropped, and the sky became dry and exposed.
This Cheyi Village also made a fortune by mining "cow dung carbon". The villagers' pockets also bulged. Therefore, there was an urgent need for a "cement road" out of the village. Therefore, it received support from the county and township levels, and also
There is this project.
The cause and effect of this have been investigated clearly. The electric power company's 10-kilovolt high-voltage line wire erection was indeed constructed according to standards. Muyi and the others also obtained the electric power company's original construction design drawings and acceptance documents.
What puzzled Mu Yi was that the minimum distance between the power company's original wires and the ground or water was 4.50 meters. Why was it 4.65 meters when they surveyed it? But they soon figured it out. It was due to the mining of peat mines that the water level dropped.
, causing the dry surface to drop, equivalent to a settlement of 0.15 meters.
Finally, it was recommended to the power company to strengthen safety inspections of this section of wires and eliminate safety hazards in a timely manner. Then through multi-party coordination, the power company and the village committee respectively provided some humanitarian subsidies. The driver was fully responsible for the accident because he was involved in the accident.
Dead, exempt from punishment. Case closed.
This accident had just been settled. At a little after 3 pm on September 12, another drowning death occurred.
The accident was reported by Baishahe Power Station. Baishahe Power Station is located at the junction of Datu Township and Haitang County. After receiving the accident report, Mu Yi and his leaders rushed to the scene.
Everyone arrived at Baisha Power Station in a hurry. The deceased was lying on a wooden door, covered with white cloth, and was placed in the courtyard of Baisha River Power Station. The power station was full of relatives and friends of the deceased, as well as some people watching the excitement.
Villagers. The scene was a bit noisy and chaotic.
After a brief understanding, it was found that the deceased was a villager from Datu Village, Datu Township. He was drowned in the inlet pond of Baisha River Power Station for unknown reasons. The first person to discover the deceased was the slag cleaning personnel of Baisha River Power Station.
Since it is the rainy season, the water diversion channel of Baishahe Power Station is an open channel, and fallen branches, weeds and other debris often block the water inlet. Therefore, the power station has specially set up slag cleaning personnel.
Because the water inflow of the power station was abnormal, slag cleaning crews were sent to clean up the slag. After the slag cleaning crews cleaned up the branches and other debris blocked on the iron fence of the water inlet, the water inflow still did not return to normal. Based on experience, the slag cleaning crews judged
There must be something adsorbed to the bottom of the fence by the negative pressure of the water, blocking the water inlet. It is probably an animal such as a pig or sheep that fell into the ditch and drowned.
After a lot of effort, what was fished out turned out to be a dead man. This frightened the slag removal personnel. They quickly reported to the leaders of the power station. The leaders of the power station quickly reported to the leaders of the township government.
The township government quickly notified each village and household to clean up their own personnel. Soon someone in Datu Village reported that someone in the family had gone out to work in the morning. It was supposed to be time to come back for lunch, but he did not come back. The family went to the fields.
Couldn't find it.
The township and village quickly notified the family to go to the water inlet of Baisha River Power Station to identify the body. When the family came to the water inlet and saw the family member with a belly swollen like a frog, tears flowed down their faces and they cried so hard that they could not stop crying.
…
The news spread quickly, and the relatives and friends of the deceased's family rushed over. They carried the deceased to the Baishahe Power Station with all their hands, and asked the power station to give an explanation.
The power station felt that it had been wronged. However, it could not persuade the people to leave. It quickly reported it to the relevant leaders of the relevant departments in the county.
Mu Yi and the others came to the water inlet of the Baisha River Power Station, where the deceased was found, to conduct on-site inspection and investigation. While inspecting the site, it started to rain again. The rain became heavier and heavier. When Mu Yi and the others returned to the power station from the scene
By the time, I was soaked all over, even my underwear was soaked...
After surveying the scene, there was no dry clothes to change. I could only find a room in the power station to wring out my clothes and pants and continue to wear them. Then I conducted an investigation and understanding of the family members of the deceased and the villagers.
After careful investigation, it was found that the deceased had a harmonious family, a good financial situation, and no motive for suicide. He was also very humble, had a harmonious relationship with his neighbors, and had no enemies. The possibility of suicide or homicide was basically ruled out.
After careful analysis, everyone concluded that after the deceased went to work, he probably wanted to take a shortcut home for lunch, so he did not choose to take the usual route, but chose to walk along the canal of the Baisha River Hydropower Station.
Because it rained heavily yesterday where the soil was being dug, the river water surged, and the water in the canal overflowed the surface of the canal, leaving some mud. In addition, there was some moss growing on the side of the canal. Therefore, the deceased chose a shortcut and walked beside the canal.
While walking up, my feet slipped, and I lost my footing and fell into the diversion canal. I drowned in the diversion canal and was blocked by the iron fence at the water inlet of the power station. Until the Baisha River Power Station discovered that the water pressure was abnormal, and sent slag cleaning personnel to clean the slag.
deceased.
Originally, the diversion canal of the power station was closed to traffic. Baishahe Power Station also conducted extensive publicity and set up safety warning signs. However, it could not be banned. So this accident happened.
After the investigation was clear, both the deceased's family and the power station agreed with this conclusion. It was already three o'clock in the morning. Muyi and the others were really tired, cold, hungry and thirsty. Because they rushed over after receiving the accident report.
, I have been working intensely for almost 12 hours continuously. I haven’t eaten enough water or rice, my mouth is dry, my throat is smoking, I am exhausted, and my body is on the verge of collapse...
This was an accident. However, the aftermath work still had to be carried out. Finally, after repeated tug-of-war, the two sides finally got through the work at 5 o'clock in the morning. Although Baishahe Power Station felt that it was wronged, as a company,
It is still necessary to have a good relationship with the local villagers, because from a legal point of view, they have no responsibility, but they still provide some symbolic humanitarian subsidies.
Mu Yi also assisted both of them in drafting the "Humanitarian Subsidy Agreement". Both parties signed and pledged, one party gave the money, and the other party carried the body away.
After the matter was settled satisfactorily, everyone had a sip of hot pickled cabbage and potato soup... That feeling was truly unforgettable!
After returning home, Mu Yi developed a high fever. He had to undergo fluid infusion for three days. His body had not fully recovered yet. Two more accidents occurred one after another.
An accident occurred in the morning. A villager in Popo, Dongmen Town, Chengguan Town, found that the poplar tree in front of his door was too tall and lush, which had affected the safety of the electric wires next to the door.
He is very safety-conscious. After breakfast, he climbed a mountain tree with a machete on his waist to cut branches. The purpose was to cut off branches that affected the safety of electric wires and eliminate potential safety hazards.
Who knows, just when he was chopping branches vigorously, a thick branch was cut off. It was just not completely cut off. There was still some bark connected to the trunk, and one end of the low-hanging branch had already been cut off.
Hang on the wire.
At this moment, the "god of death" had quietly stretched out its claws. But the villager who cut down the tree did not realize this. He instinctively stretched out his left hand to pull the branch, and raised the machete in his right hand to chop at the connection between the bark and the trunk.
The place.
What he was thinking was that with this knife chop, he would gently pull and throw the branch, and the branch would fall down.
However, it was his thought that sent him to meet the Lord of Hell.
He was electrocuted first, then fell from the tree and died. After forensic investigation, it was concluded that he was electrocuted first and then fell from the tree. In other words, he was dead the moment he fell.
After this accident, the family of the deceased was really pitiful. His wife was an honest and honest woman in her 30s, and she had a son and a daughter. The daughter was only 10 years old and the son was 8 years old. The whole family was really crying.
Heartbreaking, that scene was so miserable...
To be continued...
