During the current round of floods, the Three Gorges Project blocked a total of 7.66 billion cubic meters of floodwater, successfully resisting the largest flood peak since the construction of the reservoir at 75,000 cubic meters per second and reducing the pressure on flood control in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
