Ministry of Water Resources: Vigorously promote the construction of flood control engineering system in the Haihe River Basin

　　China News Service, March 1. On March 1, the State Council Information Office held a press conference on the progress of promoting post-disaster water conservancy infrastructure construction.

Chen Min, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Water Resources, introduced at the meeting that the Ministry of Water Resources guided local water conservancy departments and river basin management agencies to actively use additional funds from the issuance of national bonds to speed up post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, especially a comprehensive review of the Haihe River Basin flood control system, in response to the "23·7" Based on the overall situation and long-term problems exposed by the flood, we will systematically plan ideas and measures for the governance of the Haihe River Basin system, and vigorously promote the construction of the flood control engineering system in the Haihe River Basin.

　　At the meeting, a reporter asked: What work has been done to significantly improve water conservancy facilities and flood control facilities?

In addition, what progress has been made so far in terms of issuance of additional national bonds to support the construction of flood control and conservancy projects in river basins such as the Haihe River?

Chen Min responded as above.

　　Chen Min pointed out that on the one hand, we should speed up the repair of water damage and the construction of post-disaster water conservancy projects.

All provincial party committees and governments attach great importance to and effectively implement the main responsibilities.

　　First, establish a mechanism to promote the issuance of additional government bonds for water conservancy projects.

The main responsible comrades of the provincial party committee and government made personal arrangements, and the leaders in charge regularly scheduled project implementation, tracked and understood the progress of project implementation in a timely manner, and coordinated to solve difficult issues such as supporting funds and factor guarantees.

Development and reform, finance, water conservancy and other departments will work closely together to refine project management, fund management and other measures.

Provincial water conservancy departments set up special work teams, established project ledgers, and clearly defined task lists, responsibility lists, measures lists, and work completion time limits by project type. For example, the Sichuan Provincial Water Conservancy Department coordinated and promoted project implementation more than 10 times according to the work ledgers.

　　The second is to strengthen guidance and supervision for cities and counties.

Provincial water conservancy departments guide city and county water conservancy departments to formulate implementation plans and detail work responsibilities on a "one project, one policy" basis.

For example, the Hunan Provincial Department of Water Resources has established 14 supervision service groups and mobilized elite forces to carry out "hundred cadres and experts to go to the grassroots, joint projects, and deliver services" to provide policy and business guidance and technical services.

For example, the Guizhou Provincial Department of Water Resources guides cities and counties to strengthen full-coverage management of the entire project implementation process in accordance with the "three presences" of construction start, construction, and completion.

　　The third is to speed up the progress of project construction.

Since the beginning of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Water Resources have held two water conservancy project organization and implementation promotion meetings, and jointly dispatched working groups to conduct on-site supervision in provinces with relatively heavy construction tasks.

All regions have accelerated the progress of projects under construction and vigorously promoted the review, approval and construction of new projects.

At present, severely affected provinces such as Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei are accelerating the restoration of flood-damaged projects. The preliminary work of flood-damaged restoration projects supported by additional issuance of government bonds has been completed and construction has begun one after another.

For the entire water conservancy project that issuance of additional treasury bonds, all localities are making every effort to speed up the construction progress while ensuring quality and safety.

　　Chen Min also pointed out that in the second aspect, we should speed up the improvement of the flood control engineering system in the Haihe River, Songhua River and Liaohe River basins.

Combined with the revision of the river basin flood control plan and the preparation of the recent flood control management implementation plan, based on the past five years, focusing on 2035, and looking forward to 2050, we will coordinate the short-term, mid-term, and long-term management goals, demonstrate the improvement of flood control standards for important protected objects, and scientifically layout reservoirs, Construction of river channels, embankments, flood storage and detention areas, etc., accelerating the construction of rainwater monitoring and forecasting systems, building digital twin river basins, improving the "four precautions" functions of forecasting, early warning, rehearsal, and contingency plans, and accelerating the formation of flood control systems in river basins such as the Haihe River, Songhua River, and Liaohe Rivers A new pattern will be established to comprehensively establish a river basin flood control and disaster reduction system that is compatible with Chinese-style modernization.

　　At present, the construction of Ziyahe Qingshan Reservoir in the Haihe River Basin has begun, the Louli Reservoir project has been approved, and the preliminary work of Chenjiazhuang and Zhangfang Reservoirs has been accelerated.

The implementation of the management of key backbone rivers such as the Yongding River, Ziya River, Hutuo River, Fuyang Xin River, and Zhang River has been accelerated. The construction projects of national flood storage and detention areas such as the Yongding River flood area, Dongdian, Wen'anwa, Xianxian flood area, and Xiaoqing River can be The research has been approved and we will strive to start construction as soon as possible.

Flood control projects in the main stream of the Liao River and river management projects in the Songhua River Basin such as the Lalin River and the Ant River are being accelerated.
