Although the Da Tong inflow during the spring flood is three times that of the same period in previous years, and the Yangtze River tide level is higher than in previous years, it hasn't caused much economic loss to Linghai or even the whole Binjiang.
The reason why the provincial, city, and county levels place such importance on flood prevention might be because the embankments along the river, harbor embankments, gate embankments, river island embankments, and the embankments of the Tong River had just been repaired. A lot of earthwork was done during the embankment repairs, and such vast amounts of new soil need some time to settle to become firm. The higher-ups are worried about leaks, seepages, and other dangers.
Facts have proven that the comprehensively repaired embankments have stood the test.
If it weren't for the upcoming plum rain season and the subsequent summer flood, it's estimated that not many people would still be talking about flood prevention now.
