The Ministry of Water Resources said China has accelerated modern water-network
construction and kept water-construction investment at a high level. From
January to June, China implemented 33,000 water projects and completed CNY 515.1
bln of water-construction investment. Major projects — including the Beibu Gulf
water-resource allocation scheme and the Yellow River Guxian water-control hub —
plus national water-network backbone supply/drainage channels and key
regulation/storage nodes are being expedited.
