Project Summary

Ⅰ Objectives 

The purpose of the " Workshop on Technical Standards for Water Resources and Hydropower "  project is to promote the Lancang Mekong River Basin water resources cooperation to achieve practical results as soon as possible, give full play to the influence of water resources and hydropower engineering technical standards, and play a bridge and link role in realizing the trans formation of engineering technology and scientific and technological achievements into productivity, promote China's competitive advantage in the field of water resources and hydropower engineering technology and engineering construction, and strive to become the leader of market rules. Through the opportunity of the Lancang Mekong cooperation special fund, we will take advantage of three to five years to carry out promotion and training on China's water resources and hydropower project construction standard system and important standards, and publicize the concept of China's water resources and hydropower project construction. 

Ⅱ main activities 

The General Institute of Water Resources and Hydropower Planning and Design, Ministry of Water Resources (GIWP) and China Water Resources Beifang Investigation, Design and Research Co. Ltd. (BIDR) held the semi-annual workshop on Technical Standards for Water Resources and Hydropower in Tianjin during 8-15 September 2019, and invited 21 water resources management and technical personnel from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam Bangladesh for exchange and training. The theme of the workshop is reservoir dam design, which is carried out by means of expert lectures, technical exchanges and field visits. The main contents include analysis  on the current situation of water resources in China, layout of earth rock dam and design of face rockfill dam, monitoring, early warning and emergency disposal of reservoir dam emergencies, etc. During the workshop, participants were also organized to visit Three Gorges Project, Landscape Engineering of Haihe River Basin in Tianjin, Water Ecological Control Project of Yangtze River, etc. 

Ⅲ Expected Outcomes/Achieved Results and Prospects 

1. On the basis of the two workshops 1n 2018, the workshop work of Lancang-Mekong countries has been modularized, programmed and standardized, and the workshop work has been carried out in an orderly manner to achieve the expected effect. 

2. With the help of the "going out" strategy, the Lancang-Mekong countries workshop has been made into an "elite training plan", and a series of products have been designed, which are demand-oriented, follow from easy to difficult, pay attention to review and summary, and deeply understand the needs and suggestions of participants. 

3. Strengthen the tracking of workshop effect, focus on the combination of workshop and relevant national standardization work of Lancang-Mekong countries, improve the influence of water resources technical standards of China, and provide strong support for the subsequent project approval.
