The Ministry of Water Resources once again launched a joint scheduling of drought supply to the Yangtze River Basin Reservoir Group

China Daily, September 12th. Since August, the Yangtze River Basin has accumulated 72 mm, 64%less than the same period of the year. At present, the water level in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake are 4.89 to 7.20 meters lower than the same period of the year. It is predicted that the rainfall in the Yangtze River Basin in mid -to -late September is still relatively small. The water level in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Dongting Lake, and Poyang Lake system will continue to decline. The drought may be further developed, and the drought resistance will still be severe.

In order to ensure the safety of drinking water and ensure the demand for irrigation water for the growth of large livestock water and autumn grain crops. At 8 o'clock on the 12th, special operations were launched in the Yangtze River Basin Reservoir Group Drought Restaurant and Water Supply. Focusing on guaranteeing the critical period of water supply and urban and rural water supply demand for autumn grain crops such as middle and downstream of the Yangtze River in the middle and late September of the Yangtze River. Accurate scheduling the upstream reservoir group of the Yangtze River with the core of the Three Gorges, the Dongting Lake Water System Reservoir Group, and the Poyang Lake Water System Reservoir Group to replenish the downstream; supervise and guide the favorable opportunities of hydrating, accurately connect each irrigation area, and every urban and rural water supply. Multi -quote, multi -tune, and more mention, carefully calculate the drought -resistant source of each party.

After the implementation of this special operation, it can effectively alleviate the rapid decline in the water level of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the water level of Dongting Lake, and the Poyang Lake, and create more favorable conditions for drought -resistant water and water to ensure the safety of water supply in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the water supply of urban and rural water system along the Poyang Lake system. , Ensure that 356 large and medium -sized irrigation areas and a large number of small irrigation areas are required for the growth of autumn grain crops.
