Umm Al Quwain — The Municipality of Umm Al Quwain has warned of a hefty fine of Dh1,000 against illegal makeshift cabins.

Eng Mohammed Nasser Subhi, acting head of building section at the civic body here, said makeshift cabins are permitted at construction sites on a temporary basis, and upon approval only.

“Makeshift cabins should never be left for good or unattended, otherwise, they will pose a grave risk to the set standards of safety and security, apart from distorting the image of the emirate,” said Nasser Subhi.

Owners of these cabins are given a certain time frame within which they have to be removed, he affirmed. “These cabins are associated to construction projects only.”

Nasser Subhi indicated that if any illegal makeshift caravan is spotted, a warning with a grace period to remove it will be given. If it is not adhered to, no other warning or grace period shall be given.

“Also, a fine of not less than Dh1,000 will be imposed with an order to remove it immediately in coordination with the civil defence department, UAQ.”

All safety and precautionary procedures must be met at these temporary caravans as well, he pointed out. “Fire extinguishers, for example, must be full, easy and ready to use, and be placed in a clear area and examined on a regular basis.”

Subhi stated that some of these cabins are built on the chassis of old cars so that they can be moved, and they “pose a grave risk to people’s safety.”

Some of these cabins are sometimes bigger and even heavier than the chassis they are built on, he said. “All cabins, be they fixed or portable, need to be examined and licensed in advance for safety reasons.”

Failing to properly secure and install these makeshift cabins turns them into a major source for disasters and hazardous fires, he warned.

“Several fires have been reported at these cabins, mainly at construction sites and schools, he added.”

Some of these makeshift cabins are nonflammable and serve as a better alternative for wooden cabins which easily go up in flames, Subhi said.

“It is better to use the cabins made of aluminum and nonflammable plastic and other fireproof materials that efficiently do not spread fire, and can be safely and quickly contained.”
