National Water Network Investment Demand to Surpass 6 Trillion Yuan During the 15th Five-Year Plan Period

According to the Ministry of Water Resources, national water network construction has accelerated since the beginning of this year, with investment demand during the 15th Five-Year Plan period expected to exceed 6 trillion yuan. In the first three quarters of this year, 41,400 water conservancy projects were implemented nationwide, and 28 major water conservancy projects were started. At the construction site of the Shangbaishi Water Control Project in Ningde, Fujian, workers seized the construction window period to carry out tasks such as installing retaining wall forms and leveling sites along the river channel. Upon completion, the project will fundamentally solve the flood problems affecting over 600,000 people in eastern Fujian. (CCTV News)
