Zhejiang Province launched the third level emergency response to drought resistance

At 10 o'clock yesterday morning, the provincial defense index launched a class III emergency response to drought Zhejiang provincial Party committee and provincial government urgently held a video conference on drought relief work, which proposed that drought prevention and drought relief is the overwhelming central work in Zhejiang Province In view of the current situation of water shortage for people and animals in mountainous areas, half mountain areas, islands and other water deficient areas in Zhejiang Province, the provincial government proposed that various measures should be taken in various places, such as water storage, drinking water, water collection, artificial precipitation enhancement and desalination, and every effort should be made to increase the available water sources The artificial precipitation enhancement team should be on standby 24 hours a day, seize all favorable meteorological conditions, and carry out artificial precipitation enhancement at any time The Hangzhou municipal government also called for all air conditioners to be turned up one degree As of August 10, 103 small rivers were cut off, 82 small reservoirs and mountain ponds were dried up, 417000 people and 63000 large livestock had difficulty in drinking water, and 312000 hectares of crops were affected by drought In addition to the general data, the provincial defense index staff also analyzed several characteristics of the current drought: on the one hand, continuous high temperature and less rain Since July, the average precipitation of the whole province is only 66 mm, which is more than 70% less than that of the whole year On the contrary, the average evaporation of the whole province is more than 200 mm, more than 20% more than that of the whole year Some of the farmland without irrigation conditions are seriously lack of soil moisture, and the crops can not grow normally, while some crops, even if they have irrigation conditions, are seriously burned by continuous high temperature On the other hand, the drought is widespread 11 cities in the province have suffered from different degrees of drought The drought areas are mainly concentrated in mountainous areas, semi mountainous areas and islands Some fields near the sky without effective irrigation facilities, such as reservoirs, suffer relatively serious drought The population with poor drinking water is mainly distributed in rural areas and remote islands that use mountain streams or small ponds for water supply But it's not all bad news At least there is no problem with the water supply of the reservoir at present As of 8:00 on August 11, the water storage rate of large and medium-sized reservoirs in the province is 74.8% The main water supply reservoirs can generally guarantee normal water supply for two months or more If emergency control measures are taken, the water supply time can be longer However, the water storage rate of small and medium-sized reservoirs is about 55%, the water level of small and medium-sized reservoirs drops rapidly, and some Shantang and small reservoirs have dried up An urgent call for home air conditioning to be raised has been under way for a time to study the vegetable farmers' loss subsidy system According to the forecast of the meteorological department, large-scale precipitation in Hangzhou is unlikely this week At present, the drought area of agriculture and forestry in Hangzhou has reached 1.15 million mu, and the loss of crops affected by drought is 780 million yuan In the future, the loss will be further expanded, and the contradiction between water and water supply will be more prominent Everyone is responsible for high temperature and drought resistance In order to ensure the orderly use of electricity, Hangzhou has obtained the electricity consumption index of 500000 kilowatts from Zhejiang Electric Power Bureau The electricity consumption follows the principle of living first and production later, and there will never be a situation of opening or closing the residential electricity Yesterday, the Hangzhou municipal government urgently appealed to the public to turn up the air conditioning in their homes In addition, the cooling power consumption in public places, including hotels, supermarkets, hotels and other service places, shall not be lower than the 26 ℃ specified by the State Council The city will start the screening mechanism, and once the temperature control is found to be lower than 26 ℃, it will be ordered to rectify immediately In terms of water supply, as of yesterday, Hangzhou has carried out 29 times of artificial precipitation increase, which has made great achievements in alleviating the drought At the same time, some achievements have been made in protecting seedlings and greening Now Hangzhou follows the principle of first using domestic water, then orderly mobilizing industrial water and service water, and actively implementing artificial precipitation In order to protect vegetable baskets and rice bags, Hangzhou city has also issued an emergency production plan to stabilize vegetable prices, ensure that more than 120 tons of leafy vegetables are listed in Hangzhou every day during the high temperature period, and actively study the loss subsidy system for vegetable farmers For the crops that have been cut off, we should make timely arrangements for replanting and replanting the varieties with strong drought resistance and short growth period, arrange 3 million yuan of drought relief funds, allocate 5000 high-pressure water pumps to ensure agricultural irrigation, and increase the construction of spray irrigation system for the severely damaged tea garden In the face of high temperature and drought, the provincial Party committee and the provincial government attach great importance to the materials such as water pump units and diesel generators In fact, in order to alleviate the drought, the relevant departments have implemented artificial precipitation enhancement all over the province Yesterday, our newspaper reported that after 5000 people in Yuhang had difficulty drinking water, the local government dispatched several sprinklers to send water into the mountains, and organized the purchase of electric fans and other equipment to cool the residents Unfortunately, the original artificial precipitation enhancement plan of meteorological department failed to be realized again due to insufficient conditions In addition to artificial precipitation, the provincial defense index also uses water diversion to alleviate the drought On July 31, Zhejiang East Water Diversion Project, the largest water resource allocation project in the province, began to provide emergency water The reporter learned that at present, according to preliminary statistics, the province has invested 1355000 people in drought resistance, 137000 sets of drought resistance equipment, 26000 pump stations, 7400 electromechanical wells, 7000 water trucks and 266 million yuan of funds, irrigated 9.58 million mu of drought resistance, temporarily solved the drinking water difficulties of 330000 people and 80000 large livestock At present, there is an urgent need for water pump units, diesel generators, water pipes and disinfectants.
