1.Effective measure aimed at addressing the water contamination:
We will fight hard for ecological protection and governance of the Yellow River. We will fully implement the requirements of determining the city, the land, the people, and the production by water, implement deep water-saving and water-control actions, and strictly control the development of high-water consumption industries.
2.How the measure works:
Maintain the upstream water conservation function, and promote the use of grass to determine livestock and grazing. We will strengthen the control of soil and water loss in the middle reaches of the river, and control pollution from non-point agricultural sources such as the Fenwei Plain and the Hetao irrigation area. We will protect and restore the wetlands of the Yellow River Delta and strengthen the comprehensive management of the Yellow River estuary. We will strengthen the construction of urban sewage treatment facilities and supporting pipe networks along the Yellow River, carry out the "waste removal campaign" in the Yellow River basin, and basically complete the pollution control of tailings ponds. By 2025, the water quality of the upper and middle reaches of the main stream of the Yellow River (above Huayuan estuary) will reach Class II, and the ecological flow of the main stream and main tributaries will be effectively guaranteed.
3.The impact of the measure:
The Yellow River Basin is an important ecological corridor in beautiful China, and occupies an important position in the strategic pattern of ecological security in China's "two screens and three belts". It is the main grain producing area and energy base in China. Ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin is one of the major strategies of China. It fully demonstrates the strategic resolve and firm determination of the CPC Central Committee to build a beautiful China featuring harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and positively responds to the people's ardent aspirations for a better quality of life after the completion of the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects.
Promoting ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin is of far-reaching historical and strategic significance. To protect the ecological environment of the Yellow River Basin and promote the high-quality economic development along the Yellow River is an urgent need to coordinate the relationship between water and sediment of the Yellow River, alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand of water resources, and ensure the stability of the Yellow River. It is the practical need to implement the concept of clear water and green mountains as gold and silver mountains, prevent and defuse ecological security risks, and build a beautiful China. It is a strategic need to strengthen the coordination and cooperation of the whole basin, narrow the development gap between the north and the south, and promote the improvement of people's livelihood. It is the internal need to emancipate the mind and concept, give full play to the role of the market mechanism, and stimulate the vitality and creativity of the market subjects. It is the need of The Times to vigorously protect and carry forward the Yellow River culture, highlight the Chinese civilization, enhance national unity, and enhance cultural self-confidence.
