Gaozhou Reservoir is the largest reservoir in Guangdong Province.

It is the largest reservoir in Guangdong.

Gaozhou Reservoir is located in the northeast of Gaozhou City, 25 kilometers away from Gaozhou City, with rainwater collection area of 1.022 square kilometers and total storage capacity of1.654,38+0.48 billion cubic meters. It is one of the top ten reservoirs in China. It is responsible for agricultural irrigation, industrial and domestic water use in Gaozhou, Huazhou, Dianbai, Maonan and Wuchuan.

Gaozhou Reservoir consists of Deke Reservoir Area and Shigu Reservoir Area in Yoshiko Yura. Liangde Reservoir started in May 1958 and was completed in September 1959. Shigu Reservoir was started in June 1959 and completed in July 1960.

At that time, Gaozhou County organized construction forces and invested 22 million man-days of labor. What is surprising is the speed of mechanization, which makes people feel like a miracle.

In the whole process of reservoir construction, it shows the incomparable strength of Gaozhou people, which is a monument in the history of Gaozhou construction, the crystallization of Gaozhou people's labor to create the world, and the concentrated expression of Gaozhou spirit of selfless dedication, honesty and thrift, and hard work.

Extended data:

During the construction of Gaozhou Reservoir, Gaozhou County at that time transferred more than 40,000 laborers from 24 communes and brought their own rations to fight day and night on the reservoir site. For the sake of reservoir construction and national interests, reservoir immigrants gave up the farmland left by their ancestors and moved away from their hometown.

The construction of Gaozhou Reservoir flooded 43,900 mu of cultivated land and 679,900 square meters of houses, with 1.2 1.000 households and 6 1.200 people. It is these passionate Gaozhou people who gave up their small homes for everyone and made selfless contributions to the miracle of Gaozhou Reservoir construction. It is understood that the most advanced tool at that time was just a bucket car, which was basically carried by people on their shoulders, and the construction difficulty can be imagined.

Gaozhou reservoir construction is a model of Gaozhou people's honest economy. According to the plan, the investment budget for the construction of Liangde Reservoir is 45 million yuan, and the actual national investment is 30 million yuan, but it actually took only 65.438+02.7 million yuan to complete. The rest of the money was used to build Shigu Reservoir. Liangde Reservoir and Shigu Reservoir are both large reservoirs, with storage capacity exceeding 1 100 million cubic meters.
