China entered the flood season on March 3 this year, and it is predicted that this year's flood season will be heavier than the usual flood season. A reporter saw in a small reservoir in Dingcheng District, Changde City, Hunan Province, that the dam was seriously blocked, and the reservoir spillway could not safely discharge floodwater.

On May 24, the General Office of National Defense sent a joint working group to six provinces to supervise the safety of dangerous reservoirs. This year China plans to strengthen 3500,2023 small reservoirs.
