The purpose is to prevent risks and guarantee the safety of merchants and users.The provincial municipality of piura (mpp), in coordination with the crime prevention prosecutors office and the fire department, carried out an inspection of the fire systems in the market complex, with the purpose of preventing risks and guaranteeing the safety of merchants and users.
During the inspection, the facilities of the herbolarios 1 and 2 markets, the telas market and acompomaler were evaluated. in herbolarios 1 and the telas market, although the protocols could be activated, deficiencies in their operation were detected. in contrast, herbolarios 2 and acompomaler were unable to activate their systems due to technical failures, so they were given a period of two business days to correct the identified observations.
Brigadier hugo chuyes sanchez, head of fire company no. 25, highlighted the relevance of these actions promoted by the piura municipality to evaluate the state of the fire systems and offer recommendations for their correct operation. however, he expressed his concern about the lack of preparation of the market brigades.
they have quite modern systems, but they are not prepared to use them. unfortunately, they have waited for the christmas holidays to arrive to take measures. therefore, we are inviting merchants to organize themselves and form well-trained brigades, said chuyes.
Safety conditions
The mpp disaster risk management sub-directorate also inspected another 54 supply stalls to assess their safety conditions. among the main observations were: lack of signage, absence of emergency lights, lack of differential switches in some circuits, accumulation of flammable material, non-laminated glass, expired fire extinguishers and obstruction of internal circulation routes.
It was also found that many stalls do not have the technical inspection certificate for safety in medium risk buildings, in breach of current regulations.
Faced with these deficiencies, the municipality urged merchants to correct the irregularities detected, stressing the importance of working together to guarantee safe buildings, prevent accidents and be prepared for any emergency.
The provincial municipality of piura reaffirms its commitment to ensure the safety of public spaces, especially during the end-of-year festivities, when the influx of citizens to the markets increases considerably. these actions seek to protect peoples lives and guarantee a safer environment for merchants and users of the market complex.
