MWR “Three Red Lines” 水利部三条红线 • water development and utilisation to control water quantity,通过水资源开发和利用控制水质 • water use efficiency to curb waste of water 提高用水效率杜绝浪费 • pollutant carrying capacity in water function zones to strictly control pollution discharge loads. 通过水功能区纳污能力严格控制排污

Water Allocation • Set Total: water allocation regulations set amount of surface water users are allowed to abstract and how reservoirs are to be regulated to balance supply and demand. • Seasonal Adjustment: yearly water allocation plan is implemented through monthly regulating schemes and, in times of high water demand, ten-day water regulating schemes. • Indexes: Yearly total water abstraction indices of the main stream and tributaries are set by YRCC, which controls abstractions and reservoir releases. Adjust index in time of drought • Stakeholder Process: YRCC Prepare plans and assessments working closely with the Provincial Water Resources Bureaus. • Ratify: Final plan agreed by Provincial Governors, then submitted to State Council • FYP: Yearly water allocation planning to be incorporated into regional socio-economic development plans.
Water Allocation • Negotiations based on a fixed baseline of 1987 • Does not fully account for the changes in development levels over time • Deciding the Baseline problem for all water Trading Schemes 58 bcm total - 37 useable, 14 for sediment transport, 7 for Ecological restoration • Accounts for need for sediment flows • Not yet clear on calculation of environmental flows • Based on long term water resource of YR, now may be much less • Water Allocation fully Utilised
Water Rights Transfer - Ningxia, Inner Mongolia Pilot • New water user cannot get water drawing permit • Must arrange transfer from existing user • Invest in agricultural water saving • Be allowed to draw that water • Direct transaction places individual value on the water transfer.

No 1 Document on Water Quality improvement 1号文件-水质改善 • The approach is of total load management (article 21) 总量控制管理(第21条) • linked to setting of performance targets for officials to be incorporated to the existing system of letters of responsibility (article 22). 考察官员的绩效目标,并将其与当前的责任相联系 This is a quite radically different approach to EU, and possibly to anywhere else in the world. It is highly ambitious in terms of the technical and institutional tools required for implementation. 这与欧盟及世界上其他地方有 很大的不同,从实施的技术角度和制度层面都是很有挑战性的。

Pollution load Management • Sounds straight forward • But how to actually make it work? • There are discharge standards which have been tightened • But no real equivalent of BAT • Currently no proper discharge permitting system • Plan is for Pollution Load Based system • MWR have guidelines for how to Calculate the Carrying Capacity and Pollution Load allocations SL 348-2006 • But getting into the detail of these encounters many uncertainties and problems
Pollution load Management • River catchment defined into Water Functional Zones • Calculate Carrying capacity • COD and Ammonia • Based on Upstream standard • 90 percentile low flow • Standard Decay coefficients • Effective discharge point calculation
Pollution load Management • Calculate pollution load allocation • Compare the known discharges to the Carrying Capacity • If less than Carrying capacity then leave as are • Apply industry standards, Still greater than CC? • If still greater then apply proportional reductions to meet Carrying capacity • Meets WFZ standard now?? … Doubt it!
Some Problems with Pollution load system 污染负荷管理系统的问题 • Definition of Flow regime 定义流态 • Not River basin approach – Reaches are disconnected 并非流域理念-河流是不连续的 • Takes no account of actual river water quality data 不考虑实际的河流水质数据 • Diffuse pollution is not considered 不考虑面源污染 • Uncertainty in Data and models not managed数据和模型的不确定性 • Abstractions and diversions not properly considered 没有适当考虑取水和调水 • Problems of data sharing between sectors部门之间数据共享问题 • Timetable for attainment not defined没有目标实现时间表 • Flow and quality solutions not yet linked流量和质量不匹配 • Mechanisms for translating pollution load for river reach to discharge control for factory / town and objective for official 将河段污染负荷分解到工厂、城镇排污口的机制以及官员目标
RBMP Contribution to PL Allocation • Enhanced Pollution Load management system • Model and GIS based system for undertaking the calculations. Ability to: • extend calculation procedure to different flow regimes • consider diffuse sources • account for unknown data and uncertainty • Account for river basin network effects • Use actual water quality data, predict outcome of strategies to meet WFZ • Quantitative methods for comparing strategies and future horizons. • Support of integration of calculations to administrative process
Where is this Going? • Water Allocation • Scientific assessment process • Passes to a stakeholder political negotiation process • Allocation of a scarce resource • Mechanisms for trading of the Water allocation • Currently internally in Provinces • Potential to make inter province / region at multiple administrative levels • Link water allocation and pollution allocation through Water Permit • Compare to Europe where abstraction and discharge only loosely linked in most cases
Where is this Going? • Pollution Load Management • Requires improved Scientific assessment process that accounts for all sources and Basin Network effects • Yet to establish stakeholder political negotiation process • Allocation of an overabundant liability • No Mechanisms for trading of the Pollution allocation (possible?) • Currently internal in River reach • Potential to make inter province / region at multiple administrative levels across River basin • Link water allocation and pollution allocation through Water Permit • Link to administrative personnel performance assessment of CPC • But system as presently conceived will not actually achieve WFZ objectives in an efficient way
Where is this Going? …. Future • Integrated Quantity and Quality Management • Water Functional Zones to include comprehensive river health assessment - Accounts for Biology, morphology, social status, hydrology • Design system to actually meet these Targets • Flow regime basis of Pollution Load calculation could match with the Water Allocation and environmental flows requirement • The statutory Pollution load allocation system based on simple local principles in WFZ supplemented with River basin Level planning for optimised investment • Models and Pollution indices may be used as mechanism for optimised planning of pollution control and Benefit Cost analysis.

Conclusions结论 • Integrated River Health monitoring is now being introduced in China, based on best international practice 前流域健康综合监测的方法已经引进到中国,这些方法基于国际上最好的实践经验 • Better mechanisms for pollution Load management are being developed, based on Chinese administrative systems. 更好的污染负荷管理系统目前只在开发,基于中国的行政体系 • Together these can help drive change and improvement 这些工作将带来变化和改进 • Much Technical development still required 依然需要更多的技术 • May seem confused now, but so did WFD 10 years ago • Supporting guidance very important to evolution
Very different from EU Will it Work??
