Anhui Builds Water-Control Facilities

East China's Anhui Province has invested more than 2.5 billion yuan to build water-control facilities on the Yangtze and Huai rivers since last year.

Both of the rivers run through Anhui. The Huai has been free of big floods since 1992, and the possibility of flooding is now rising.

Construction of the Huaihong New River, the largest water conservation project on the Huai, has completed, involving an investment of 1.4 billion yuan. The 125-meter-long new river will play an important role in flood control along the Huai, by discharging 2,000 cubic meters of flood water per second.

In addition, the province arranged 20 projects for reinforcing the embankments of the Yangtze. Devastating Yangtze floods hit Anhui in 1998.
