The heating water pipe was damaged, causing the boiling water to the sidewalk, the trees were burned, and pedestrians did not dare to approach. There were serious safety hazards. Citizens had repeatedly dialed the emergency management department telephone and 12345 government service hotline. Recently, a citizen of Xiangyang, Hubei asked Jimu News (027-86777777) for help, hoping to solve this problem that has troubled the masses for many years.

At about 4 pm on September 8th, Jimu Journalists came to Torch Road in Xiangyang City. In front of the reward incense noodle village across the China Railway 11 director Hong District, the boss Mr. Li was pumping from the pipe well at the door with pump pumps. The water flowed to the road, and he and his wife kept reminding the public to detour.

He said that the water was pumped once at 7 am that day, and now the water level has risen by two or three meters. The store will be closed immediately. If you do not pump the water, the water level will rise tomorrow morning. If it happens, the consequences dare not imagine.

The reporter found that the flowing water was hot and very hot. The manhole cover device is about 20 cm above the ground. The thick iron lid is rust and the temperature is also very high. Boss Li said that the temperature in the hot water buried underground was more than 200 degrees Celsius. Due to the long years of disrepair, the external pipes were damaged in many places, causing hot water to flow out of the external pipe.

Boss Li opened the noodle restaurant here for 12 years. The hot water in the heating pipe was occasionally spreading to the road. From May last year, the problem of leakage was worse. He had to pump water once or twice a day. In the past, he called the maintenance staff to pump the water. Later, because the maintenance personnel had not arrived at work when the water was needed in the morning, the maintenance staff simply left the pump to let him pump himself.

Jimu reporters found that there was no green leaf in a nearby road tree. Boss Li said that the tree was smoked to death by the heat, not only people, but even the dog felt the hot air around. Especially on rainy days, the naked pipelines kept shaking, and the movements issued were very large. The neighbors upstairs thought they were construction. "The rumbling sound of the pipe was shocked on a rainy day, and there was a feeling of driving clouds nearby." The noodle restaurant said.

Master Wang, Changhong Community, told Jimu Journalists that several grounds in front of the community rushed all year round, and the electric poles were hot. Last year, someone came to dig into the pipeline and found that the underground pipeline was rotten, but later did not deal with it.

Worried about the burns, Boss Li inserted the warning sign of "careful burns" on the manhole cover. His lover Ms. Li has repeatedly reported the problem to the emergency management department and the 12345 hotline for six months. On August 19th, 12345 hotline replied: Sky stop before September 2nd. Who knows, no one has dealt with so far.

In this regard, Master Yang, who is responsible for the maintenance of the pipeline for this paragraph. He introduced that there have been more than 30 years here. The water temperature of the internal tube was increased by 250-260 degrees Celsius, and a section of the damage of the external care tube was about 150 meters. The sewage flows into the external care pipe again, and the water temperature is nearly 100 ° C. They also often come to repair, but the damage is getting more and more serious, and the pipeline needs to be replaced again. The pipeline of the office belongs to the Xiangyang Anneng thermal Power Plant. The new pipeline requires funds, and Xiangtu Energy Company is reporting to apply.
