The storage capacity of 33 large reservoirs in Haihe River Basin exceeds 10 billion cubic meters, which is nearly 65% more than the same period of many years.

  CCTV News:According to the website of Haihe Water Resources Commission, due to the influence of Typhoon Du Surui, there was a basin flood in Haihe River, and the reservoirs in the basin fully played the role of flood control to stop the flood. By 8: 00 on August 10th, 33 large reservoirs in mountainous areas had stored 10.2 billion cubic meters of water, nearly 65% (6.2 billion cubic meters) more than the same period of many years.

  At present, among the 33 large reservoirs in mountainous areas in the basin, six reservoirs, including Miyun Reservoir in the North Sanhe system, hold 3.48 billion cubic meters of water; Three reservoirs, including Guanting Reservoir of Yongding River Department, store 620 million cubic meters of water; Six reservoirs, such as Wangkuai Reservoir and Xidayang Reservoir, of Daqing River Department, store 1.52 billion cubic meters of water; Five reservoirs, including Gangnan Reservoir and Huangbizhuang Reservoir of Ziya River, have a storage capacity of 1.60 billion cubic meters. Six reservoirs, including Yuecheng Reservoir and Panshitou Reservoir, in Zhangwei River Department store 880 million cubic meters of water. Seven reservoirs in Luanhe River system, including Panjiakou Reservoir and Daheiting Reservoir, hold 2.12 billion cubic meters of water. Baiyangdian in the basin has a water storage capacity of 330 million cubic meters, and some large reservoirs in the plains such as Dalangdian, Hengshui Lake and Tuanbowa have a water storage capacity of over 280 million cubic meters.

  Reservoirs are the "trump card" to prevent floods in river basins. In order to effectively defend against this round of typhoon heavy rainfall, the Marine Commission gave full play to the role of the Haihe River Defense General Office, cooperated with the provinces and cities in the basin, paid close attention to the typhoon dynamics in real time, and dispatched the backbone reservoirs of the river system to pre-discharge and vacate the reservoirs in advance, and coordinated the upstream and downstream, the left and right banks, the main tributaries and the Ming Tombs Reservoir, Gangnan Reservoir, Huangbizhuang Reservoir, Yuecheng Reservoir and Panshi Reservoir in accordance with the principles of system, science, order and safety. In the next step, the CMC will supervise all relevant places, conscientiously implement various rules and regulations on reservoir safety management, continue to patrol and defend key parts and key links, and continue to exert engineering benefits.
