Actions taken to prevent geological disasters

Qingzhen city in Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province, has taken a series of actions to prevent geological disasters as summer came.

Departments of natural resources and weather coordinated efforts to analyze this year's possible climatic and geological disasters, and have formed corresponding emergency plans.

Compared to last year, the city has reduced four high-risk and seven mid-risk sites and has organized three themed training sessions.

Natural disaster prevention and control drills were carried out to enhance the anti-disaster awareness of staff members at the forefront. Ninety-three sets of automated monitoring devices have also been installed, such as rainfall recorders and joint meters.
