Danghe , which is supplied by glacier snow melting, spring water and atmospheric precipitation, poured down all the way. After leaving Subei 50 kilometers, he came to Hongliuwan Town, Aksai County by diversion through the "Gangsu Jihong" project, and intersected with the herdsmen and farmers living on this land.
Akse bitter water for a long time
is located at the junction of Gansu, Qinghai and Xin provinces (regions). It is located in the hinterland desert. It is one of the "thirst" water-receiving areas of Jiuquan . The herdsmen who have lived on this land for a long time are anxious and hope to be on the water.
From the founding of Aksai to the early 1990s, the living conditions of the people have not improved for more than 40 years. It is difficult to see a doctor, go to school, and especially to get water. These issues that concern the vital interests of the people have never been properly resolved.
In Boluo Zhuanjing Town, Aksai County, people either dig wells to get water or carry water to eat. Although this water is bitter and has many impurities, it is the lifeblood of local residents and herds.
To develop the economy and society, we must make up for the shortcomings in people's livelihood. Relocation has become the best choice for local residents to pursue a happy life. In January 1995, the State Council approved the transfer of Aksai County Government from Boluo Zhuanjing Town to Hongliuwan Town dozens of kilometers away.
In early 1996, the construction of new county towns was fully launched. In 1998, Aksai County was officially moved from Boluo Zhuanjing Town to Hongliuwan Town as a whole.
In the southern part of Aksai County, the surface runoff of the Harten Valley is as high as 426 million cubic meters, while in the northern production and living areas with a relatively developed population, there is only 54 million cubic meters of runoff.
Aksai water resources are distributed and scattered, and the difficulty in utilization has led to a shortage of water resources in Hongliuwan Town. After the relocation, water shortages are still an important factor restricting the development of this land.
attracted a pool of clear water
In 2000, Aksai County was determined to declare war on "tricky water", invested 320 million yuan to successively build Aksaigou and three spring drinking water projects and the most important "inducing the party and red" project.
Since then, Aksai no longer "worry about water". The herdsmen and farmers who have been trapped by water have completely bid farewell to their life of drinking bitter water.
"Water resources have played a crucial role in improving Aksai's living conditions. It was Danghe who relocated to the new county town that nurtured us." Chen Desheng, a cadre of the Aksai County Cultural and Tourism Bureau who lived in the old county town, sighed.
As the major livelihood water conservancy project with the largest investment scale and the largest beneficiary population in Aksai County's history, the "Governance Party and Red" project was fully started in March 2000 and officially opened to water in July 2001. The sweet Danghe River water alleviates the severe water shortage in the new county and fundamentally solves the problem of water difficulties in production and living for urban and rural residents.
In the same year, the Aksai County Water Affairs Bureau, as the first ethnic autonomous county in Gansu Province, was officially established, thus ending the county's history of "multiple dragons to manage water" for more than 40 years, and forming a new pattern of "one dragons to manage water, united water management, and joint efforts to promote water". Benefiting from this, Aksai County vigorously promoted the unified planning, allocation and management of water resources in the county, and established a one-stop drainage mechanism for water sources-water plants-faucets-drainage-pollution control.
After most of the drinking water problems in rural and pastoral areas were solved, the focus of water diversion in Aksai County shifted from "relieving difficulties" to "safe". In order to make the "Introduction Party and Red" project give full play to greater benefits, Aksai County has implemented network allocation and coordinated water resource management, and has embarked on a new path of taking into account both workers and peasants, integrating urban and rural areas, rational allocation of resources, and integrated development.
On the basis of solving the water use of urban people, Aksai County has gradually started the construction of a drinking water project for people and animals in pastoral areas, so that pastoral herdsmen have bid farewell to the history of "people carry animals" for generations to draw water.
In 2013, Yandantumu farmers in Jiaerwuzong Village, Hongliuwan Town, Aksai County used tap water to achieve drinking water safety. This also means that this grassland new city has achieved a historic victory in the battle between clear and turbid, sweet and bitter drinking water safety.
20 more than a year of hard work, and the water use pattern in Aksai County has changed.
changed from a "water bottleneck" to a "water support"
In Hongliuwan Town, Danghe stopped and gathered to form reservoirs or landscape lakes of varying sizes, continuously conserving the ecology and benefiting the people's livelihood.
In mid-September this year, the construction project of Minzu Village, Aksai County, located in the north of Aksai County, the West Ring City Forest Belt and the surrounding Jinshan Lake Reservoir, with a total investment of 11.12 million yuan, entered the final stage, providing better hardware facilities and security guarantees for the people's outdoor leisure and fitness.
In Aksai County, the emergence of Jinshan Lake is a vivid portrayal of the water management, promoting and protecting water in Aksai County in the new era. Looking up, the lake is full of green, looking down, the lake is clear, flocks of migratory birds and green trees, like a mirror in the sky. Here, water and green are accompanied by people and water, like a beautiful picture of green water siegeing the city and the city and water depend on each other.
People's livelihood is full of expectations, and there is no end to water control. From "leading the source of life to nourish people's livelihood" to "solidifying production to stabilize the job"; from "building the foundation of ecology to nourish all things" to "painting a new picture of beautiful ecological pearls on the block"... Along the way, Aksai County has promoted the extension of water conservancy infrastructure to the grassroots level.
Xingshui's pace has never stopped. On the earth of Aksai, the story about water continues.
Aksai County's 2021 Government Work Report proposed that Aksai County will focus on prominent issues in the fields of water safety, water resources, water environment, water ecology, and water management, cooperate with the cascade development of the Harbin-Ji Party and the hydropower resources, implement projects such as Sugan Lake water diversion and county-level water system connectivity, and form a dual water supply guarantee system for Danghe and Harteng River.
Changes in water use have driven the overall leap in the lifestyle of the people in Aksai County. Thanks to the continuous economic and social development of Aksai County in recent years and the implementation of housing renovation and infrastructure projects for residents of ethnic new villages in Aksai County, the living conditions of the relocated people in the old county town have undergone earth-shaking changes.
In order to completely improve the rural living environment, Aksai County began to organize and implement housing renovation and infrastructure construction projects for residents of ethnic new villages. The total investment of the project is 211 million yuan, and 396 households are renovated in total. The original housing in the ethnic village is transformed into a two-story villa area with a total construction area of 88,000 square meters and an average construction area of 220 square meters.
"In the past, I wanted to settle in a town, but the conditions were limited at that time, so I couldn't do it." Kulidar, an old Kazakh , who had lived in the local area for more than 60 years, recalled that in the past, he lived in a yurt all year round, and an old yurt was the whole family.
At that time, the herdsmen in Aksai County were generally scattered in various pastures, living in yurts and lighting oil lamps, living a nomadic life of living by chasing water and grass. To this day, in the Aksai Memory Hall, the old county town of Boluo Zhuanjing, you can see such a group of photos. One is a scene of water fetching with people carrying animals on their backs and carrying them on their shoulders, and the other is a daily water use of clear water entering the house and flowing happily. The contrast between the old and the new is very strong.
From carrying water to digging wells, from being difficult to find water to entering the house, life changes the world. Now, Kulidar's family lives in the city, raises cattle and sheep in the mountains, and cooks mellow milk tea in the house... "I can't imagine such a life in the past!" Kulidar sighed.
From "drinking water is difficult" to "sweet water". Aksai County's determination to improve people's livelihood and well-being has never changed. In recent years, in accordance with the requirements of "urbanization, high starting point, and strong radiation", Aksai County has continuously improved municipal facilities and improved urban quality around the construction of facilities such as "roads, water, electricity, stations, fields, lines, housing, and tourism".
From yurts to villas, today's life of the herds and farmers in Aksai County has achieved a "three-level jump". These are the concrete manifestations of Aksai County's implementation of various ethnic policies to benefit the people, and are also vivid footnotes left by the county's economic and social development in the 24 years since the county relocation.
Today, under the nourishment of the Danghe River, every household of Aksai has a fragrant milk tea, and the taste of life is happy and long-lasting.
