Anhui to invest 190 bln RMB in Huai River watershed by 2020
On February 7, the Water Resources Bureau of Anhui Province released an outline of a plan to restore and manage the Huai River watershed. According to the plan, by the year 2020, Anhui Province will have invested almost 193 billion RMB in the river, marking a new round of initiatives that include drought and flood control, as well as the implementation of programs to clean up and prevent pollution. Faster development, particularly in the urban areas surrounding the watershed, have put increased pressure on the river, which necessitate the upgrade and expansion of existing pollution, flood, and drought controls.
