On July 15, the Hengzhou Water Resources Bureau reported that the Qingjiang River Sluice Gate is located near Xiashuili Village, Qingjiang Village Committee, Hengzhou Town, Hengzhou City. On the afternoon of July 10, it was difficult to determine the safety of the sluice because the water level in the Neijiang River was about 9 meters higher than the water level in the outer river, and the main body of the sluice felt when the Qingjiang River floodgates were flooded. In order to ensure the safety of people's lives and property along the Qingjiang River, measures have been taken to ban traffic on the road at the top of the Qingjiang River sluice gate and to transfer and evacuate people in low-lying areas along the Qingjiang River floodgates. Through continuous flood drainage and removal of obstacles such as water hyacinths and floating objects affecting upstream flooding, as of 11:00 on July 15, the water level of the Qingjiang River sluice gate was 49.40 meters, 2.27 meters lower than the design level; the downstream water level was 46.8 meters, with a difference of 2.6 meters between upstream and downstream water levels. Currently, the working conditions of the Qingjiang River dam body are stable and safe against overturning and sliding, the vibration of the dam body has been reduced, and the operation of the floodgate is generally safe and controllable.
