Flood water is discharged through the sluice on the Three Gorges
Dam on June 19. Continuous downpour on the upper reaches of the
Yangtze River has resulted in this year's heaviest flood, with
3,3000 cubic meters of water flowing into the Three Gorges
Reservior every second. The 2007 plan for flood prevention and
control has been implemented.
