Reporters learned from the Ministry of Emergency Management on the 21st that in order to effectively prevent and control major safety risks in chemical industry parks, the Ministry of Emergency Management has recently revised and issued the "Guidelines for the Investigation and Management of Safety Risks in Chemical Industry Parks" to further guide, standardize and strengthen the investigation and management of safety risks in chemical industry parks.

The revision of the "Guidelines" focuses on the connection with existing policies and standards, focuses on the prevention and control of major safety risks, strictly adheres to the bottom line of safe development, and further clarifies the definition of chemical industry parks, safety risk assessment and dynamic adjustment mechanisms, and detailed rules for chemical industry park safety risk inspections.

The "Guidelines" clarify that all regions must adhere to scientific planning and rational layout, standardize the site selection of chemical industry parks, clarify the scope of regional and surrounding safety control, strengthen the overall safety risk assessment of chemical industry parks, and avoid the domino effect. It is necessary to adhere to strict access and standardized management, formulate and implement a "prohibited and restricted" catalog, strengthen safety control at the source of hazardous chemical production and construction projects entering the park, and strictly prevent and control chemical industry transfer safety risks.

The "Guidelines" require that chemical industry parks and provincial levels must regularly conduct safety risk level assessments, starting from park identification, site selection and planning, park layout, project access and exit, supporting functional facilities, safety production and emergency integrated management In other aspects, we systematically carry out safety risk investigation and management, implement "one park, one policy" rectification, lay a solid foundation for safety assurance, and comprehensively improve the intrinsic safety level of chemical industry parks.

The "Guidelines" emphasize that situations such as the occurrence of major or above production safety accidents and the substandard deployment of professional supervisory personnel will be directly determined as high safety risks; for chemical industrial parks with high and higher safety risk levels, new, modified, and Expand hazardous chemicals production and construction projects; if they still fail to reach the general or lower safety risk level after rectification and review, dynamic adjustments will be made to promote the continuous improvement of chemical industry parks and gradually achieve the overall goal of centralized layout, cluster development, and reduction of safety risks. Resolutely curb major accidents. (Reporter Chen Su) (Source: China News Network)

Recently, the Ministry of Emergency Management revised and issued the "Guidelines for Safety Risk Investigation and Management of Chemical Industry Parks" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guidelines"). The relevant content is now interpreted as follows:

1. What is the background of the revision of the Guidelines?

The "Opinions on Comprehensively Strengthening the Safety Production of Hazardous Chemicals" issued by the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council clearly requires that chemical industry parks be identified as meeting standards, conduct precise inspections and assess safety risks, and implement the strictest governance and rectification. Chemical industry parks are an important carrier and platform space for the development of the chemical industry. There are currently more than 640 chemical industry parks published and recognized across the country. The admission rate of hazardous chemicals production enterprises continues to increase. The improvement and improvement of chemical industry parks has become a major safety risk in the prevention and control of hazardous chemicals. , important content to improve the intrinsic safety level of the chemical industry. Since the issuance and implementation of the "Guidelines for the Investigation and Governance of Safety Risks in Chemical Industry Parks (Trial)", safety improvements in chemical industry parks in various regions have been continuously deepened. The disorderly development of chemical industry parks and the accumulation of safety risks have been initially curbed. Safety risks in most chemical industry parks have been Management and control capabilities have been significantly improved, but the expert guidance services organized by the Ministry of Emergency Management to carry out safety rectification and improvement of chemical industry parks across the country reflect that the accuracy and effectiveness of safety risk investigation and governance and rectification improvement in some chemical industry parks are not high, and some chemical industry parks lack planning coordination and functions. Deep-seated contradictions and problems such as unclear positioning, low entry threshold for enterprises, low level of supporting facilities, and insufficient supervision have not yet been completely resolved, and the safety risks of some chemical industry parks are still high. Revise and issue the "Guidelines" to further give play to the normative and leading role of the "Guidelines", consolidate, deepen and expand relevant policy and measure requirements for the improvement of chemical industry parks in recent years, summarize and absorb the experiences and practices of various regions, and promote the improvement of the intrinsic safety level of chemical industry parks and strengthen major safety Risk prevention and control are of great significance.

2. What are the overall considerations for revising the Guidelines?

The revision of the "Guidelines" mainly considers three points: First, it is fully connected with existing policy standards. The "Guidelines" are based on national laws and regulations such as the "Safety Production Law" and "Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals", and are connected with chemical industry park construction standards and certification management methods, and guidance on further strengthening chemical industry park safety management and other standards and regulations. Integrate and refine the interpretation of "ten haves and two prohibitions" ("ten haves" means there is a planning system, management agencies, personnel, management systems, the "four to" scope, surrounding land planning safety control lines, public works and supporting functions Facilities include closed management, dedicated parking lots for hazardous chemicals vehicles, information platforms, chemical safety skills training bases, and firefighting facilities (special service stations); "two bans", that is, the "prohibited and restricted" directory, Residential residences and labor-intensive enterprises are prohibited), and the requirements for safety risk inspection and management standards in chemical industry parks are further clarified. The second is to focus on the prevention and control of major safety risks. The "Guidelines" aim at the common problems discovered by expert guidance services, combined with new situations and new problems exposed by typical accidents in recent years and the experience and practices of rectification and improvement in various regions, and focus on the overall layout of centralized layout, cluster development, and safety risk reduction of "two episodes and one low" The goal is to focus on chemical industry park project access, planning and layout, prevention and control of major safety risks such as safety risk spillovers and domino effects, and put forward relevant requirements for the improvement of chemical industry park safety improvements. The third is to strictly adhere to the bottom line of safe development. The "Guidelines" regard major safety risk points such as the occurrence of major and above production safety accidents, failure to equip with dual power supplies, and substandard professional supervisory staff as special clauses that directly determine the level of high safety risk (Level A), forcing the park to speed up Improvement and improvement to effectively reduce safety risks.

3. What are the main contents of the revision of the Guidelines?

The "Guidelines" have been revised mainly in the following three aspects: First, the definition of chemical industry parks has been further clarified. On the basis of the original "Guidelines", it is further clarified that a chemical park is established with the approval of the people's government, recognized and announced by the provincial people's government or its authorized agency, oriented towards the development of the chemical industry, with clear geographical boundaries and management entities, infrastructure and management A complete industrial area. The safety risk investigation and improvement of chemical industry parks that have not yet passed the certification can be implemented as a reference. Second, the relevant requirements for security risk assessment and dynamic adjustment mechanisms are further clarified. It is clarified that chemical industry park safety risk assessments will be carried out on a rolling basis at different levels. The chemical industry park will conduct a safety risk level self-assessment every year. At the provincial level, the safety risk level will be randomly checked and reviewed at a rate of no less than 30% per year. A round of comprehensive coverage of the province will be completed every three years. Review at different levels, carry out hierarchical management and control based on the evaluation results, and implement a dynamic adjustment mechanism. The third is to further clarify the detailed rules for safety risk investigation in chemical industry parks. The checklist of the "Guidelines" has been adjusted to include 36 assessment items in 6 major elements including "identification, site selection and planning, layout within the park, access and exit, supporting functional facilities, integrated safety production and emergency management", and has been further refined and clarified Requirements related to the delineation of the "four to" scope, overall safety risk assessment, project safety access, closed management, construction of supporting functional facilities such as chemical safety skills training bases, etc. have been revised and improved, and the scoring rules, scores and direct judgments have been revised and improved. Special provisions for high safety risk levels (Level A) increase accident points.

4. How to deal with chemical industrial parks that are assessed as high or higher safety risk level (Level A/B)?

The "Guidelines" put forward three disposal requirements for chemical industry parks assessed as high (Level A) or higher (Level B) safety risks: First, rectification within a time limit, during which new, modified, and expanded production of hazardous chemicals will be stopped. Construction projects (except safety, environmental protection, energy saving and intelligent transformation projects). Second, after the rectification is completed, the relevant provincial departments will organize a review of the safety risk level. If the safety risk level still does not reach the average or lower safety risk level, the provincial government will be reported and suggestions for handling will be made. Third, chemical industrial parks that have been judged to have a high safety risk level (Level A) due to the occurrence of major or above production safety accidents should wait at least 3 months after the accident occurred and the accident has been closed and announced to the public before the safety risk level can be submitted. Provincial review.

5. How to carry out safety improvements in chemical industry parks in accordance with the "Guidelines"?

The improvement of safety in chemical industry parks is a systematic project. It is necessary to accelerate the implementation of safety improvement projects in chemical industry parks and gradually achieve the overall goal of "two episodes and one low". In accordance with the "Guidelines", chemical industry parks must check shortcomings and loopholes item by item, clarify the key tasks and goals of governance, improve the implementation of "one park, one policy" in a targeted manner, continue to carry out rectification and improvement, and accelerate the construction of supporting infrastructure and safety management capabilities , systematically improve the intrinsic safety level of chemical industry parks and reduce safety risks. All regions must follow the "14th Five-Year Plan" hazardous chemicals safety production planning plan, and aim at reaching the target requirement of lower safety risk level (Level D) for about 90% of chemical industry parks by the end of 2025, based on the "Guidelines", find out the correct We will address common issues and shortcomings in the safety management of chemical industry parks within our jurisdiction, formulate chemical park rectification and improvement plans, strengthen policy support, guidance, assistance and supervision, control the source of high-quality development, make good use of supervision and restraint means, and promote the overall chemical industry park within our jurisdiction. promote. The Emergency Management Department will strengthen the publicity and interpretation of the "Guidelines", increase expert guidance services, implement major safety risk prevention and control projects, supervise the progress of drying work, summarize and promote practical experience, continue to deepen and consolidate the effectiveness of rectification, and continuously improve the safe development of chemical industry parks level.
