What is the starting point and end point of the national South-to-North Water Transfer Project? What is the reason for the construction?

The national South-to-North Water Diversion Project is divided into east, middle and west lines. The starting point of the eastern route project is Yangzhou in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the end point is Tianjin. The starting point of the mid-line project is Danjiangkou Reservoir, with the focus on Tuancheng Lake in the Summer Palace in Beijing. The western front is still in the early stage of demonstration.

The main reason for building the national South-to-North Water Transfer Project is to improve the natural environment in North China and Northwest China and promote the harmony between man and nature. At the same time, it will effectively solve the serious water shortage problem in North China and Northwest China, mobilize the growth potential of these areas, expand development opportunities, improve the efficiency of resource allocation, and promote the strategic adjustment of economic structure.

The implementation of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project is the material guarantee for China to achieve balanced regional development and build a well-off society in an all-round way. Although China has basically achieved the goal of a well-off society, the contradiction of unbalanced economic and social development has become increasingly prominent. There are many reasons for this development gap, among which the shortage of water resources is one of the important reasons for the backward economic development in North China and Northwest China.

The national South-to-North Water Transfer Project is of great strategic significance for maintaining the rapid growth of the national economy, realizing the nationwide structural upgrading and the sustainable development of the economic and social environment, and coordinating regional development and building a well-off society in an all-round way.

Extended data:

The implementation of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project is conducive to stimulating domestic demand and expanding employment.

The research results of the State Council Development Research Center show that the construction of South-to-North Water Transfer Project will directly stimulate economic growth and increase employment opportunities along the route. According to the preliminary estimate of 10 during the construction period, the investment in the South-to-North Water Transfer Project in the near future will boost GDP growth by 0. 12 percentage points annually on average, and further expand its impact on economic growth through multiplier effect.

Experience shows that 40% investment can be converted into consumption. According to the price level at the end of 2000, after the implementation of the first phase of the East Line and the Middle Line, the average direct benefit for many years is about 56 billion yuan/year. According to the estimate that every investment of 554.38+10,000 yuan creates one employment opportunity, about180,000 employment opportunities can be added every year during the first phase of the construction of the East Line and the Middle Line.

During the completion and operation of the project, with the improvement of water resources conditions in the vast water receiving areas, the production structure and scale of enterprises will also change, some emerging industries will develop rapidly, and the opportunities for expanding employment will further increase.
