Abstract The cross-regional water diversion project has been widely applied as an important way to relieve water pressure. Study about the tradeoff between multiple regions and multiple water use sectors has caused widespread concern. In this study, an inexact two-stage water resources management model for multi-region water resources planning with a large-scale water diversion project has been developed. The water sources in 11 districts, including independent water sources and public water sources diverted from the project, are considered in the optimization model. Water supply cost and recourse cost are analyzed in the objective function. Based on interval-parameter programming and two-stage stochastic programming, uncertainties in the water resources system are described by both interval values and probability distributions. The result indicates that the water diversion project would greatly change the composition of the water resource system and settle the uneven distribution of regional water resources to achieve district-optimal allocation of water resources. In general, the proposed method can help decision-makers to formulate water management strategies for rational utilization of all kinds of water resources in different regions.

The research on the feasibility of Feicheng Water Diversion from Dawen River Project is based on a thorough investigation in the actual condition of water resources in Feicheng city. It is found that on the one hand this city has been suffering from water shortage, while on the other hand it has allowed most of the water flowing away in vain from Dawen River, which runs through this area. To resolve this contradiction, this research demonstrates the feasibility of networking of Dawen River and Shangzhuanglu Reservoir through engineering measures to realize the optimal allocation of water resources

The construction of water resources optimal allocation model is the premise and foundation of solving and evaluating the optimal allocation model of water resources. The allocation of water resources includes not only the simple allocation of water resources, but also the protection of water resources and the analysis of the relationship between water supply and demand. Aiming at the problem of water shortage in the receiving area of water diversion from Hanjiang River to Weihe River, the large-scale system decomposition and coordination algorithm is used to optimally allocate the water use departments of each district of the water diversion area from Han to Wei River in Shaanxi Province, and establish the water diversion project from Han to Wei River. Optimal allocation model of water resources in the water receiving area. The results show that: in the 2030 planning level, the water supply of key cities, Xixian new district, medium/small cities, and industrial parks were 153.57, 368.16, 632.04, and 208.68 million m3, respectively, and the corresponding water shortage rate was 2.8%, 5.6%, 8.4%, 11.2%. The water supply sequence has a lower water shortage rate than the previous one, and the water shortage rate of the domestic water sector in key cities is only 1.2%. From the water shortage situation of various water departments in 2030, it can basically meet the water shortage of water receiving objects and effectively improve the water shortage in water receiving areas.

The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (Jingjinji) region is the most densely populated region in China and suffers from severe water resource shortage, with considerable water-related issues emerging under a changing context such as construction of water diversion projects (WDP), regional synergistic development, and climate change. To this end, this paper develops a framework to examine the water resource security for 200 counties in the Jingjinji region under these changes. Thus, county-level water resource security is assessed in terms of the long-term annual mean and selected typical years (i.e., dry, normal, and wet years), with and without the WDP, and under the current and projected future (i.e., regional synergistic development and climate change). The outcomes of such scenarios are assessed based on two water-crowding indicators, two use-to-availability indicators, and one composite indicator. Results indicate first that the water resources are distributed unevenly, relatively more abundant in the northeastern counties and extremely limited in the other counties. The water resources are very limited at the regional level, with the water availability per capita and per unit gross domestic product (GDP) being only 279/290 m3 and 46/18 m3 in the current and projected future scenarios, respectively, even when considering the WDP. Second, the population carrying capacity is currently the dominant influence, while economic development will be the controlling factor in the future for most middle and southern counties. This suggests that significant improvement in water-saving technologies, vigorous replacement of industries from high to low water consumption, as well as water from other supplies for large-scale applications are greatly needed. Third, the research identifies those counties most at risk to water scarcity and shows that most of them can be greatly relieved after supplementation by the planned WDP. Finally, more attention should be paid to the southern counties because their water resources are not only limited but also much more sensitive and vulnerable to climate change. This work should benefit water resource management and allocation decisions in the Jingjinji region, and the proposed assessment framework can be applied to other similar problems.

Beijing is located in a semiarid region, and water shortage is a common problem in the city. Along with the rapid increase in water demand, due to fast socioeconomic development and an increase in population, a shortage of water resources and a deterioration of the water environment have become obstacles to sustainable socioeconomic development in Beijing. In the long run, sustainable water resources management, water conservation, and completion of the south to north water diversion project will solve the problem. This paper introduces the water resources situation in Beijing; analyzes future water demand; and discusses the actions of water saving, nontraditional water resources exploitation, wetland construction, and water environment protection. The paper also explains the importance of the south to north water diversion project and the general layout of the water supply strategy, water distribution system, and methods to efficiently use the diverted water in Beijing.Key words: water resources, water supply, water saving, water recycling, water diversion.
