What project is to realize the optimal allocation of water resources in China?

The South-to-North Water Transfer Project aims to realize the optimal allocation of water resources in China.

The South-to-North Water Diversion Project (pinyin: ná n shu ǐ b Ρ i di à o) is a strategic project of China people, which is divided into three routes: east, middle and west. The starting point of the East Line Project is located in Jiangdu Water Control Project in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. The starting point of the middle route project is located in Danjiangkou Reservoir in the middle and upper reaches of Hanjiang River, and the water receiving areas are Henan, Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin.

The idea of the engineering scheme was put forward in 1952 when President Mao Zedong visited the Yellow River. Since then, through the analysis and comparison of more than 50 schemes, the water transfer scheme has achieved many valuable results. The planning area of South-to-North Water Transfer Project involves a population of 438 million, and the water transfer scale is 44.8 billion cubic meters. The total length of the east, middle and west trunk lines planned by the project is 4350 kilometers.

The first phase of the East and Middle Lines is 2,899 kilometers long, and the first-class supporting branch canals in six provinces and cities along the line are about 2,700 kilometers. From 2065438 to September 2002, the relocation of migrants in Danjiangkou reservoir area of the Middle Route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project was fully completed. The South-to-North Water Transfer Project mainly solves the problem of water shortage in northern China, especially in the Huang-Huai-Hai River Basin, with a population of 438 million.

* * * There are three water transfer lines, namely the East Line, the Middle Line and the West Line, which are connected with the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Huaihe River and the Haihe River, forming an overall layout with "four horizontals and three verticals" as the main body, which is helpful to realize the rational allocation pattern of water resources in China.

Engineering concept

Since Chairman Mao put forward in 1952 that "there is more water in the south and less water in the north, it is possible to borrow some water conditionally." Under the leadership and care of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the vast number of scientific and technological workers have done a lot of field exploration and measurement, and on the basis of analyzing and comparing more than 50 schemes, they have formed the basic scheme of transferring water from the east line, the middle line and the west line of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project, and achieved a lot of valuable results.

The South-to-North Water Transfer Project mainly solves the problem of water shortage in northern China, especially in the Huang-Huai-Hai River Basin, with a population of 438 million. The final water transfer scale of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project is planned to be 44.8 billion cubic meters, including 654.38+04.8 billion cubic meters in the east, 654.38+03 billion cubic meters in the middle and 654.38+07 billion cubic meters in the west. The construction time will take about 40-50 years.
