Enhancing the Legal Standing and Quality of Water Conservation
In recent years, notable progress has been made regarding law-based water management with the promulgation of laws and regulations, such as the Yangtze River Protection Law, the Yellow River Protection Law, and Regulations on Groundwater Management.
Boosting Scientific and Technological Innovation in Water Conservation
Following many years of arduous efforts, great progress has been made in scientific and technological innovations in water conservation, increasing the areas in which we have caught up with and surpassed other countries.
Developing Modern Water Conservation Infrastructure
Since the 18th CPC National Congress held in 2012, a host of major strategic water conservation projects have been under construction, thereby strengthening China's capacity to coordinate allocations of water resources, ensure sufficient water supply, and retain strategic reserves.
