At 12:00 on the 30th, Taierzhuang pump station of the first phase project of the East Route of South to North Water Diversion, located at the provincial boundary of Sulu, was shut down. The head office of the eastern route of South to North Water Diversion successfully completed the task of transferring 703 million cubic meters of water into Shandong Province from 2019 to 2020, the earliest completion time of all previous water transfer years. The project in Shandong will continue to carry out the water transfer work in the water receiving areas of the province according to the plan and is expected to be completed before the end of May.

It is understood that this year, water is diverted from SANJIANGYING, Jiangsu section of the main stream of the Yangtze River in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, through the west line of Yunxi river. The water is gradually lifted by pumping stations such as Baoying, Jinhu, Hongze, Sihong, Suining and Pizhou, and the storage lakes such as Hongze Lake and Luoma Lake are connected, and Taierzhuang pump station is used to pump water to Shandong Province. The water from the south to the north is transferred into Shandong Province and then transferred to South Shandong, North Shandong and Jiaodong Peninsula after being regulated and stored by Nansi Lake.

Since the first phase of the East Route of South to North Water Diversion Project was officially opened on November 15, 2013, it has successfully completed the seven-year water transfer task to Shandong Province, with a total water inflow of 4.61 billion cubic meters and a pumping volume of more than 33 billion cubic meters. The project operates safely and stably. The water quality of the water diversion project meets the class III standard of surface water after monitoring, and has achieved good engineering, social and ecological benefits. (reporter Gillette)
