Hydrographic management approach in Northern Lakes

(Adopted by Decree No. 335 of 7 May 2010 of the Government of the Northern Province of the Great Lakes Region, which was launched effective 1 July 2010)

Article 1 regulates hydrological work and promotes the development of hydrology in line with the laws and regulations of the People's Republic of China Water Act, the People's Republic of China Hydrographic Regulations.

Article 2 engages in hydrological planning and construction in the administrative areas of the province, hydrological monitoring and forecasting, water resource survey and evaluation, the transfer, maintenance and use of hydrological monitoring materials, and the monitoring of environmental protection and hydrological monitoring management of hydrological facilities should be subject to this approach.

The hydrological activities of the national watershed management bodies are implemented in accordance with the relevant national provisions in the territorial administration.

Article 3. The cause of hydrology is the basis for national economic and social development. The hydrological cause should be integrated into the planning of national economic and social development in the province and the requirements are included in the provincial financial budget.

The Government of the city (States), districts (markets, districts) has appropriate arrangements for the provision of hydrological services directly for local economic and social development services to guarantee the development of hydrological and economic societies.

Article IV. The heads of the provincial water administrations are responsible for the following main responsibilities:

(i) Implement laws, regulations, regulations and technical standards relating to hydrological management in the State and in the province, and develop and implement development planning for the hydrological cause of the province;

(ii) Monitoring of hydrological survey and hydrological information forecasts in the province, water quality in the lake and groundwater and in the provincial waters, flood, water ecology, drought, and dissemination of relevant information and results to society in accordance with the terms of reference;

(iii) The collection, summary, review, storage, delivery, etc. of hydrological survey, hydrological information forecasts, hydrological analysis, water resource survey evaluation, water environmental monitoring and related results in the province;

(iv) Guidance, coordination and monitoring of all provincial hydrological work;

(v) The construction of hydrological engineering and hydrological information in the province;

(vi) Provision of hydrological technical advisory services for water activities;

(vii) Legal regulations and other relevant responsibilities under the Government of the Provincial People.

Provincial hydrological institutions are specifically responsible for the entire province's hydrological work.

The communes (States), districts (markets, districts) hydrological institutions are specifically responsible for hydrological work within their jurisdiction, under the leadership of the parent-level hydrological institutions and local people's governments.

Article 5 Provincial water administration authorities, in line with national and watershed hydrology development planning, prepare the state-of-the-provincial hydrological development planning in conjunction with national economic and social development needs, report on the implementation of the provincial government or its mandated authorities, and report on the Water Administration of the Department of State.

Changes in the development planning of hydrology should be approved by the original approval authority in accordance with the planning process.

The approved development planning for hydrology is the basis for the development of hydrology. The development planning of hydrological activities includes, inter alia, the development goals of hydrology, the construction of hydrology stations, the construction of hydrological monitoring and intelligence forecasting facilities, the construction of hydro-information networks, hydro-tech development, workforce construction and safeguards.

Development planning for hydrology should promote the use of advanced national and international technologies to improve the level of hydrological modernization.

Article 7. The construction of the hydrology network should be organized in accordance with the management provisions and procedures of the fixed-term asset project, based on the development planning of hydrology.

The construction of the hydrological station network should be guided by the principles of rational laydown, effective use, balance between current and long-term needs and prevent duplication.

Article 8

Hydrographic stations are divided into national basic hydrological stations and specialized hydrology stations. The State's basic hydrological stations are divided into major national hydrological stations and general hydrology stations.

Article 9 establishes and adapts to major hydrological stations of the State, which is approved by the provincial water administration authorities to report directly to the hydrological body of the State's water administration. The establishment and adaptation of the general hydrology station was approved by the provincial water administration authorities and reported to the Department of State's water administration authorities on a stand-alone basis.

Article 10. The establishment of a dedicated hydrological station shall not be repeated with the basic national hydrological stations.

In regions covered by the National Basic Hydrographies, there is a need for the establishment of specialized hydrology stations, which should be consulted prior to approval by the management authorities of the provincial hydrological institutions.

Specific hydrological stations, such as transport, shipping, environmental protection, should be consulted by the relevant authorities before approval.

Article 11. Specific hydrological stations and other units engaged in hydrological activities should be subject to the industrial management of the provincial hydrological institutions.

Article 12 Hydrographic institutions should organize hydrological monitoring in accordance with national standards, norms and protocols for hydrological technology and ensure the quality of monitoring. No medical monitoring shall be suspended without approval.

The construction of hydrological tests, postal facilities or the establishment of specialized hydrology stations shall be carried out by the water administration authorities or hydrological institutions after they receive qualifications.

Article 14.

The units that carry out hydrological elements observations within this province should be carried out without compensation for the monitored hydrological material, the reunification, clearance and integration into national hydrological databases.

The provincial hydrological institutions should establish a province-wide hydrological database that will properly store and maintain hydrological monitoring information and conduct the processing of hydrological monitoring materials and generate hydrological monitoring results.

Article 15. Basic hydrological information should be made public in accordance with the relevant provisions of the State and a platform for sound information-sharing to facilitate access by the public to hydrological information.

Hydrographic information, hydrological information forecasting information, assessment of water resources surveys and the calculation of hydrological analyses are secrets of the State and are carried out in accordance with the provisions of the national confidentiality law.

Article 16 requires the use of hydro-monitoring information and results in public goods such as decision-making and disaster prevention, defence, public safety, environmental protection, without compensation.

In addition to the preceding paragraph, the use of hydro-monitoring information and results is required to collect fees in accordance with the relevant provisions of the State and to administer the income and expenditure line.

Due to the need for specialized hydrological advisory services for business activities, the parties should enter into a paid service contract to clarify the rights and obligations of both parties.

In addition to the provision made by the State, hydrological information provided by hydrological institutions may not be transferred, borrowed, published or used for other operating activities.

The hydrological monitoring information used in the following activities shall be reviewed by provincial hydrological bodies:

(i) Preparation of hydrological monitoring information used for critical planning;

(ii) The hydrological monitoring information used in priority construction projects;

(iii) Hydrological monitoring information used in water resource management;

(iv) The identification of administrative decisions on water administrative cases and the hydrological monitoring information used to deal with water disputes;

(v) Information on hydrological monitoring used in other relevant activities under the legislation.

Article 18 Hydrographic information forecasts are made available to society by the Government of the more than the population at the district level to prevent drought command institutions, water administration authorities or hydrological institutions, in accordance with the terms of reference. Any other units and individuals are prohibited to release hydrological information forecasts to society.

The media, such as radio, television, newspapers and networks, should be broadcast, published and published in a timely manner, in accordance with the relevant national provisions and the drought prevention requirements, and indicate the time for the issuance of institutions and issuance.

Article 20, Hydrographic institutions and the communications sector should be closely coordinated to ensure that hydro-communication networks are accessible and that information and forecasts are delivered in a timely manner. Radio management should protect the normal operating order of hydro-communication launch equipment.

No unit or person shall be excluded, disrupted or damaged by hydrothermal channels, trusts and cable communications lines.

Article 21 Hydrographic institutions should strengthen dynamic monitoring of water resources and identify changes in water quantity, water quality, etc. of the monitored water body, which may endanger water security, should strengthen monitoring and investigation, monitor, investigate and deal with the Government of the recommended location and its water administration authorities in a timely manner; identify changes in water quality, which may lead to the occurrence of sudden-on-on-scale water pollution incidents, and should be promptly monitored, investigated by the people of the sites and their water administration authorities and environmental protection authorities.

Article 2 provides for the award of qualifications for units engaged in the evaluation of hydrology, water resources. No units that have obtained the quality of the evaluation of hydrology, water resources survey, as prescribed by the State, shall be allowed to carry out the evaluation of hydrology, water resources.

The assessment of water resources across the province and the region is based on the calculation of hydrological analysis by provincial hydrological bodies or municipal (state) hydrological institutions.

Article 23 of the hydrological monitoring facility is the basis for hydrological work. Any units and individuals have the obligation to protect hydrological monitoring facilities and to test the river.

Hydrographic monitoring facilities such as destruction, intrusion, destruction and unauthorized use, mobile hydrology stations, facilities, monitoring markings, observation sites, roads, measurement of ship terminals and groundwater observation wells and their accompanying facilities are prohibited.

The hydrological monitoring facilities at the national basic hydrology stations have been damaged by force majeure, and the people of the location and the relevant water administration authorities should take urgent measures to organize repairs and ensure the proper functioning of hydrological monitoring facilities.

Article 24 Governments of more people at the district level should delineate the scope of hydrological monitoring for environmental protection in accordance with national standards. The scope of protection includes:

(i) Paragraphs of the river that have buoyed or downgraded down by the upper down of 20 metres to the river of 50 metres from the buoys or down to the downside, as well as land and waters with the highest historical flooding of the river;

(ii) 30 metres around hydrological observation sites, 20 metres around the laboratory operating room, the self-reviewed water meteries, the backbone of the river's cable.
