ON MAY 25, 2022, GROUND TRAINING OF AMPHIBIOUS FIRE GROUPS OF UST-KAMENOGORSK, KATON-KARAGAI AND RIDDER AVIATION DEPARTMENTS TOOK PLACE
The personnel of the Ust-Kamenogorsk, Katon-Karagai and Ridder aviation departments underwent ground training on the basis of a special simulator tower, with the aim of thorough and comprehensive training on the ground, working out all the elements of descent, studying various techniques and training on their implementation. The practical skills of the "forest special forces" were tested by experienced mentors - the head of the air fire service and the heads of aviation departments.
It should be noted that it is not always possible to get to the area of an active forest fire by land transport, and when delivering forces and means by aviation, it is necessary to pick up a platform for a safe landing. In such cases, it is decided to land troops in the area of the fire with the help of a helicopter. The pilot-observer from the air selects a platform suitable for the descent of paratroopers- firefighters, measuring at least 5x5 meters between the crowns of trees.
It is worth noting that such training descents are held annually - at the beginning and middle of the fire season. It is extremely important to recall the methodology of helicopter descents after the winter break and consolidate the acquired skills, because this is one of the foundations of the safety of forest aviation operations.
The helicopter hovers over this "well" at a height of at least 10 meters above the treetops (while the height to the ground should not exceed 45 meters). The observer pilot opens the door and drops a particularly strong (900 kg at break) 50-meter cord, along which, with the help of a roller trigger device, paratroopers-firefighters descend directly from the helicopter to the ground. During the training, the interaction of the observer pilot and paratroopers-firefighters, the descent speed (average - three meters per second), the correct landing and much more are monitored.
ON MAY 25, 2022, A PREVENTIVE LECTURE WAS HELD BY AN EMPLOYEE OF THE ALMATY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
On May 25, 2022, as part of the program to inform the population, M.M. Isaev, a paratrooper-firefighter of the Almaty aviation department, held a preventive lecture on the topic among the employees of IP Batyrkhanova G.I.: "Protect the forest from fire." The listeners were familiarized with precautions when handling fire in the forest, actions when detecting a forest fire, actions of a lost person in the forest, compliance with sanitary standards when visiting woodlands.
ON MAY 25, 2022, AN EMPLOYEE OF THE BOROVSKY AVIATION DEPARTMENT CONDUCTED A PREVENTIVE CONVERSATION
On May 25, 2022, as part of the program to inform the population, the paratrooper-firefighter of the Borovsky aviation department, D.S. Baymagambetov, held a preventive conversation on the topic "Fire safety rules in the forests of the Republic of Kazakhstan" among the visitors of the IP SHANYRAK store. The listeners were familiarized with precautions when handling fire in the forest, actions when detecting a forest fire, actions of a lost person in the forest, compliance with sanitary standards when visiting woodlands. During the conversation, 45 leaflets on fire prevention propaganda were distributed to the audience.
"FIRE-2022": LARGE EXERCISE HELD IN THE ALMATY MOUNTAINS
Large-scale exercises were held in the Almaty mountains. They were attended by 150 rescuers. The mountainous region of the Zailiysky Alatau is considered the most visited, which is why there is a high risk of forest fires there, a Khabar 24 correspondent says. The season of natural fires in Kazakhstan opened in April of this year, but in the mountains it comes much later. Precipitation has been observed in Zailiysky Alatau in recent days. Above three thousand meters above sea level, there is still snow. But the weather here changes very quickly, and even a small fire of dry grass can cause a large-scale forest fire. Such cases occur every year. And extinguishing mountain fires is extremely difficult and costly, without aviation, a large number of people and special equipment is indispensable.
Talgat Aliyev, Deputy General Director of the State Enterprise "Kazavialesoohrana":
- This year, 12 forest fires have already occurred in the Almaty region. And about 90 forest fires on the territory of the state forest fund of Kazakhstan. We also have regions in Kazakhstan where dry thunderstorms occur, where thunderstorm fronts form, thunderstorms pass without precipitation, which leads to forest fires.
Kazavilesokhrana is engaged in constant aviation monitoring of the mountains. A patrol plane makes daily flights around the northern part of the Tien Shan. As a rule, when extinguishing a mountain fire, emergency services use all available forces and means. Therefore, not only firefighters, ROSO fighters and rescue services, but also foresters of the Ile-Alatu National Park took part in the exercises. And for the first time, new quadrocopters were used, which the rescuers got at the end of last year.
Grigory Bedenko, correspondent:
- The most recent acquisition of DES Almaty is three such industrial drones, which are produced by a Chinese company. This car is professional, there are several video cameras, there is a thermal imager and it can fly up to 8 kilometers, that is, it is an ideal tool for detecting fires in the mountains. As a rule, most natural fires occur due to human fault. Farmers arrange so-called agricultural burns - they burn last year's grass. In addition, vacationers often make fires and do not care to completely extinguish them.
Yerlan Alibekov, Deputy Head of the Department of Emergency Situations in Almaty:
- Together with the Ile-Alatau National Park, we conduct raids every Saturday and Sunday, stop the kindling of fires in the mountainous area. Since the beginning of the fire hazard period, we have brought 23 individuals to administrative responsibility. But, surprisingly, you don't have to start a fire to start a fire. It is enough just to throw an empty bottle into the grass. Its bottom refracts light like a lens. There are many other indirect reasons as well. Therefore, prevention and constant monitoring of the area is the most effective way to deal with mountain fires.
