As an infrastructure project to improve people's livelihoods and ensure safe water supply, water supply projects have always been highly valued by the municipal party committee and government. The Municipal Urban Management and Law Enforcement Bureau, as well as the Municipal Urban Development Group Water Supply Company and other units, have fully implemented the overall work layout of the city's "12345" plan, coordinated the construction of underground water pressure mining and water supply improvement projects, comprehensively implemented water supply guarantee projects, and built a new pattern of sharing and governance of drinking water safety among the people with high standards.

At the site of the expansion project of the Qingnan Water Plant, which has already been put into operation, Zhang Kun, Deputy Director of the Public Utilities Department of the Municipal Urban Management Law Enforcement Bureau, introduced to reporters that this project was officially launched in 2021, including the construction of the new expansion project of the Qingnan Water Plant, the construction of 4 new urban water supply pipelines (sections), the renovation of 29 old municipal water supply pipelines (28.6 kilometers) in the urban area, and the completion of 261 old residential water supply pipeline renovations, effectively enhancing the sense of access to water for the people A sense of happiness and security.

Our city has planned and implemented a series of water supply infrastructure projects, including the expansion project of Qingnan Water Plant and the renovation project of old municipal water supply network, in accordance with the current situation of urban water supply. After the completion of the project, it not only effectively ensured the implementation of underground water pressure mining policies, reduced leakage rates, and prevented water yellowing incidents caused by the switching between groundwater and surface water sources, but also ensured the urban water supply capacity and the safety of water use for citizens.

Gao Yuncheng, Deputy Director of the Development Planning Department of Tangshan Chengfa Group Water Supply Company, introduced that the expansion project of Qingnan Water Plant began in April 2021, with a total investment of 305 million yuan. The expansion project of the newly built Qingnan Water Plant has been put into operation in June 2022, with an annual increase of 54.75 million cubic meters of surface aquatic energy, effectively ensuring the implementation of the underground water pressure extraction policy. The new water plant adopts a treatment process of "pre ozone+double layer advection sedimentation+post ozone+carbon sand combination filter", which further enhances the urban water supply safety guarantee ability on the basis of meeting the national "Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water". In particular, in 2021, the first, second, third and fourth phase water transmission pipeline connection project was completed, and the water transmission pipeline connection project from Zhanqian Road to Fengnan District was implemented, which realized the surface water supply in Fengnan urban area, and laid the foundation for serving the urban and rural integrated water supply in Fengnan, Zhanxi, Hancheng and other regions. Now, 40000 tons of water is supplied from the urban area to Fengnan District every day.

The reporter learned that during the construction and implementation process of the project, the Municipal Urban Management and Law Enforcement Bureau and Tangshan Chengfa Group Water Supply Company conducted intensive on-site research to vigorously promote project progress; In the early stage of water supply, the water company worked on the front line of the project site through "daily inspection, daily supervision, and daily coordination"; The project office and all participating personnel have overcome many factors such as tight construction schedules, strict environmental protection, summer and flood seasons, and the epidemic, and have successively completed multiple important nodes such as civil construction, equipment installation, and water testing. Last June, Qingnan Water Plant was awarded the title of "exemplary organization of Tangshan Panasonic Environmental Protection Award Fund".
