广东深汕特别合作区北坑水库大坝填筑工程正式启动

China News Service, Shenzhen, September 30 (Suo Youwei, Zhu Luqi) The key water conservancy project in Guangdong Province - Beikeng Reservoir and its supporting water transmission project dam filling launching ceremony was held on the 29th. The main dam project of the project officially entered the substantive filling construction stage, marking a major breakthrough in the construction of key water resources protection projects in the Shenshan Special Cooperation Zone, and entering a critical construction period to speed up the task, improve quality and efficiency.

Beikeng Reservoir and its supporting water conveyance projects are an important part of the strategic layout of "one diversion, three storage, and two plants" of the Shenzhen-Shantou Special Cooperation Zone. They are also the core support project for the regional water network layout and a key livelihood water conservancy project that benefits the people and empowers development. The main buildings of the project hub are of Level 2 standard and adopt a panel rockfill dam structure design. The maximum dam height is 69.5 meters, the length of the dam crest is 801 meters, and the overall dam filling volume is approximately 3.53 million cubic meters. The project is planned to be completed and put into use in 2028. After completion, the average urban water supply volume for many years will reach 19.58 million cubic meters, the irrigation water volume will be 1.75 million cubic meters, and the irrigation area will be 3,800 acres.

After the project is implemented, it will effectively solve the engineering water shortage problem in the Shenzhen-Shantou Cooperation Zone, greatly alleviate the contradiction between regional water supply and demand, make up for the shortcomings of regional water conservancy facilities, improve the flood prevention and disaster reduction system in the river basin, optimize the regional water ecological pattern, and inject strong impetus into the local economic development. At the same time, it will continue to ensure the irrigation water of cultivated land, help increase agricultural production and income, promote the overall revitalization of the countryside, and build a solid water conservancy guarantee for the high-quality economic and social development of the Shenshan-Shantou Cooperation Zone.

The project is being constructed by the Seventh Hydropower Bureau. According to the person in charge of the Shenshan Beikeng Project of the Seventh Hydropower Bureau, as of now, the overall construction progress of the project has reached 42%, the excavation of the dam foundation has been completed 60%, the excavation task of the 1# water transmission tunnel is over half, and all pre-construction conditions have been implemented.
