Guide: although it is only the end of February, the spring drought has risen. With the completion and operation of the yulanzui reservoir, a large water tank, even if there is a more serious drought this year than in 2006, the drinking water supply of more than 200000 people in the urban area and four or five surrounding towns and streets is not worrying.

although it is only the end of February, the spring drought has risen

"with the completion and operation of the" big water tank "of the yulanzui reservoir, even if there is a more serious drought this year than in 2006, the drinking water supply of more than 200000 people in the urban area and four or five surrounding towns and streets is not worrying." Dongzhirong, director of water affairs in Qijiang District of Chongqing, was calm in his words

the completion of yulanzui reservoir is closely related to the water conservancy investment and financing mode launched by Chongqing

the short board of water conservancy forced the reform

the time can be traced back to 2003. With the continuous acceleration of economic development in Chongqing, water conservancy has become the weakest short board, and the prominent water shortage and frequent drought and flood are increasingly perplexing the development of local economy

at that time, such a set of data was impressive: the per capita guaranteed income area of drought and flood in Chongqing was only 0.18 mu, ranking last in the West; The per capita water storage, diversion and lifting capacity is only equivalent to 28.3% of the national average level, ranking first from the bottom in the West; More than four fifths of the districts, counties and cities in the city can not meet the basic flood control requirements, and the city has built only 192 kilometers of standard flood control embankments, ranking second to last in the West; There are 1475 dangerous reservoirs in the city, with a danger rate of more than 50%; More than three quarters of rural residents have unsafe drinking water, and Yangzi Petrochemical Research Institute in more than 10 counties and nearly 500 towns took the lead in developing special materials for ultra-high activity high density polyethylene composites, which has serious water shortage problems

"water conservancy reform was forced out of such a dilemma." Wang Aizu, director of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau, said that to effectively solve the engineering water shortage problem, capital is a big problem. It is impossible to achieve it in a short time, whether it depends on the central investment or the finance at the same level. Only through the reform of system and mechanism can we find a way out

the actual listed water investment group had only 1.64 billion yuan of capital at the beginning of its establishment, which is difficult to play a substantive financing role. The real gold content is a number of policies issued by the municipal Party committee and the municipal government:

first, it gives the municipal water investment group the function of land reserve, which is mainly used to solve the problems of district and county financial support. In the water conservancy project, the districts and counties where the Russian researchers' degradable composite materials in synthetic soil are located carry out land reserves, and use the land reserve income to make up for the lack of local self raised funds for water conservancy project construction. At the same time, it is promised that the excess part of land income will also be used for local water conservancy construction

taking the qilanzui reservoir in Qijiang as an example, the construction of the project requires more than 200million yuan of local supporting funds. According to the original "three three four" investment method, nearly 40% of the funds need to be raised by districts and counties. Qijiang's financial resources are limited, and it cannot be fully matched. After the establishment of the municipal water investment group, the then Qijiang County government took out 2000 mu of land to the municipal water investment group for land reserve, and entrusted the assets of 10000 kW electrical installation station to the municipal water investment group for operation. The municipal water investment group was responsible for the construction of the yulanzui reservoir, which was completed and put into use in 2008

second, allocate some resource projects for the municipal water investment group, such as hydropower stations, urban water supply, etc., and make up for the lack of public welfare water conservancy investment through operational income. It is reported that at present, the municipal water investment group is responsible for the supply of tap water in 25 districts and counties of Chongqing. At the same time, in accordance with the principle of "small steps, fast steps, and gradually in place", gradually raise the collection standard of water resources fees, and enhance the hematopoietic function of water conservancy projects

third, increase financial capital investment and tax reduction. It is reported that during the "Eleventh Five Year Plan" period, the municipal government allocated 8billion yuan for water conservancy construction, which is nearly 10 times that during the "Tenth Five Year Plan" period

protection of concrete pressure testing machine

Wang Aizu said that relying on the municipal water investment group, Chongqing water conservancy realized the financing mode of "government led, Bank supported and platform operated", breaking through the financing bottleneck of public welfare water conservancy projects at one stroke. The municipal water investment group gave full play to its role as a financing platform for coordinating the development of urban and rural water conservancy, and completed a total investment of 28billion yuan through land reserves, pledge of charging rights and issuance of corporate bonds, which is 14.7 times the investment completion of key water conservancy projects in the city during the Tenth Five Year Plan period

build the mechanism first and then build the project

after the development of water conservancy in Chongqing has broken through the bottleneck of funds, how to manage and make good use of the project funds is still facing a severe test

therefore, Chongqing put forward the concept of "building mechanisms before building projects". From preliminary planning to project bidding, from "three publicity" to whole process follow-up audit, we have constantly established rules and regulations. In particular, taking the initiative to accept the supervision of the whole society has completely blocked the non-standard and quality hidden dangers of engineering construction

taking the regulation of dangerous reservoirs as an example, the project bidding announcement was first released on the municipal media, and the whole bidding process was implemented under the joint supervision of the Municipal Water Resources Bureau, the municipal development and Reform Commission and other relevant administrative supervision departments. Once verified, the bid winning construction unit that has violations of rules and disciplines such as bid encirclement, subcontracting and illegal subcontracting will be recorded in the integrity file, and its bid qualification for 1 to 3 years will be cancelled according to the degree of violation of rules and disciplines. The whole process audit and supervision of key projects. At the same time, we will fully implement the three publicity system of pre construction, pre completion and the results of the investigation and punishment of violations of rules and disciplines, and actively accept the supervision of the whole society

at the same time, in order to stimulate districts and counties to increase investment in water conservancy, the municipal Party committee and government have included water conservancy work into the important content of the annual assessment of the party and government leadership of districts and counties, and have also actively explored the establishment of an incentive mechanism for government funds to "bid" investment. For districts and counties with better implementation of self raised funds, implement the "three priorities" of project approval, construction commencement and arrangement of subsidy funds above the municipal level; For urban flood control and urban water supply projects, we will implement "quota subsidies, competitive project approval, government commitments, social publicity, and standard cancellation". With the reward and punishment mechanism, since the "Eleventh Five Year Plan", Chongqing district and county governments have invested nearly 5billion yuan in water conservancy construction through financial budget and government credit loans, which is five times that during the "Tenth Five Year Plan"

in addition, Chongqing has also actively explored the incentive mechanism of "bidding investment, construction before compensation, and who actively supports who", explored the government's purchase or subsidy of public water conservancy services, and attracted private capital to participate in water conservancy construction through owner bidding, contracting and leasing, general construction contracting, etc
