On the 29th, it was learned from the Ministry of Water Resources that in 2023, the Ministry of Water Resources will comprehensively strengthen the operation and management of water conservancy projects, implement the management responsibility system for reservoirs, embankments and other water conservancy projects, make breakthroughs in reservoir risk removal and reinforcement work, and the number of small reservoir monitoring facilities will reach a record high. Under severe flood conditions such as multiple rounds of typhoons, the reservoir has given full play to its role as a "trump card" in flood prevention and flood control, successfully won the tough battle of reservoir safety, and achieved zero dam collapse for two consecutive years, and no breach of the embankment of the main stream of major rivers.

The number of monitoring facilities built has reached a record high. Since the "14th Five-Year Plan", the Ministry of Water Resources has implemented 390,000 small reservoir rainwater monitoring and reporting facilities, 3Construction of 10,000 dam safety monitoring facilities, of which 3 have been completed and put into use80,000 seats, 260,000 seats. We will continue to carry out pilot work to improve the monitoring capacity of small reservoirs, accelerate the construction of monitoring platforms at the ministerial and provincial levels, revise and improve the technical standards for dam safety monitoring, and increase the research and promotion of new technologies such as smart sensors, so as to provide basic support for the establishment of digital twin projects.

The management and protection mechanism of small reservoirs has been improved in quality and efficiency. Further implement the management and protection responsibilities and main bodies of small reservoirs, stabilize the investment channels for management and protection, and improve the level and quality of management and protection. Formulate and improve the quota standards for the operation and management of small reservoirs according to local conditions, speed up the formulation of subsidy quota standards for small reservoir inspection and management personnel and actively implement funds, and implement small reservoir "inspectors" 11 by the country through the purchase of services and the establishment of public welfare posts40,000.

In the next step, the Ministry of Water Resources will continue to anchor the high-quality development goals of water conservancy in the new stage, coordinate development and safety, and plan key tasks in advance to ensure the safe operation of reservoirs and dams and the continuous development of reservoir benefits.
