At present, it is the golden season for water conservancy construction, and the construction of water conservancy projects is in full swing. At the same time, the Ministry of Water Resources is actively promoting the construction of a new batch of major water conservancy projects in the fourth quarter, in order to stabilize the economic market and enhance the momentum of development.

All localities seize the golden period of water conservancy project construction

In autumn, the sky is dry and the air is cool, which is suitable for construction. The construction of water conservancy projects in various places is also being accelerated. In Hainan, during the National Day holiday, thousands of builders stuck to the front line of major water conservancy projects, actively responded to the "labor competition" campaign launched by Hainan Water Conservancy Department in the fourth quarter, reversed the construction period, wall map operations, and took multiple measures to promote the project work.

Vice Minister of Water Resources Liu Weiping introduced that the current batch of major water conservancy projects have achieved important node targets. Nearly 90% of the main project of Anhui River and Huai River diversion has been completed, and it is expected that navigation and water testing will begin within this year. The Pearl River Delta water resources allocation project has completed 97.5% of tunnel excavation and is expected to be completed within the year.

A number of major water conservancy projects will be started in the fourth quarter

While accelerating the progress of projects under construction, local governments are also pushing for the start of more new projects. Construction of Tiaodeng Reservoir starts in Kaizhou district of Southwest China's Chongqing Municipality, Oct. 7, 2019.

The Ministry of Water Resources will also use information methods to comprehensively grasp the overall situation of water conservancy projects under construction, and make corresponding guidance according to the implementation of water conservancy construction in various regions, so as to form a construction promotion pattern with multiple measures taken simultaneously and linkage between the upper and lower levels.

In terms of funding, the Ministry of Water Resources will guide local governments to give full play to the role of the market mechanism while actively striving for greater financial input and making good use of local government special bonds and policy-based development financial instruments.

Three - pronged, multi - channel financing of construction funds, to ensure large-scale water conservancy construction capital needs.

The orderly advancement of water conservancy project construction is expected to produce significant benefits. "The current benefit is to boost investment and create jobs, which is an important way to stabilize the macro economy. In the long run, the construction of major water conservancy projects can provide strong support for flood control security, water supply security, food security and ecological security, and also contribute to the smooth implementation of the national medium - and long-term development strategy."
