What measures should be taken in the face of the rising water level in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River?

In recent days, the weather is really not peaceful, with continuous heavy rainfall. It is understood that the reporter learned from the Ministry of Water Resources that at 8 10, the water level from Jianli to Datong River in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River exceeded the police by 0.22- 1.06 meters; In addition, there are 54 rivers whose floods exceed the warning water level by 0.0 1-7.00 meters, of which 1 1 river exceeds the insurance flood limit, and four rivers, such as Shuiyangjiang in Anhui, Xihe in Jiangxi, Jianxi in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and its tributaries, have experienced historical floods. The water levels in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Jianli, Dongting Lake, Poyang Lake and Taihu Lake will continue to rise, and Hubei, Anhui and Jiangsu will maintain high water levels along the way. Super-alarm floods may occur in Raohe and Xinjiang basins in Jiangxi, and large floods may occur in some basins in Hunan, Hubei and Anhui.

In this regard, the deputy commander-in-chief of the National Defense Department and the Minister of Water Resources presided over a meeting and a chamber of commerce to analyze and judge the rain and flood situation in the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake basins, and requested to keep a close eye on the two key areas of the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake, make rolling forecasts, and do a good job in key links such as water conservancy project dispatching and dike defense to ensure that floods do not exceed the standard. In view of the main stream of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Chaojing River section of the important tributary, especially the dangerous sections and dikes with potential safety hazards, all water conservancy departments should strengthen the inspection and defense of the main dikes and tributaries of the Yangtze River, and take emergency measures immediately and report them in time when finding dangerous situations. We should also make a comprehensive plan for the Three Gorges Dam and be responsible for its own safety.

Hunan, Jiangxi and other places should carefully organize the dispatching of reservoirs such as Wuqiangxi and Zhelin in heavy rainfall areas, effectively intercept floods and cut peaks, and minimize the losses caused by floods. Inform the emergency department of the forecast results according to the water situation to win time for flood control and emergency rescue; It is necessary to actively publicize positive reports, strengthen the guidance of public opinion, respond to social concerns in a timely manner, and create a good atmosphere for joint efforts to fight floods. It is understood that at present, the Ministry of Water Resources maintains a Class III emergency response to flood control and drought relief. Seven working groups sent by the Ministry of Water Resources are at the front line to assist local governments in various defense work. On the 8th, four unannounced visit groups went to the main stream of the Yangtze River to supervise the implementation of defensive measures for dike inspection.
