淮北地区是一个大平原(包括豫东平原、中游淮北平原和苏北平原),历史上是一个多灾地区。解放后,经过40多年的治理,水旱灾害有所减轻,农业生产得到了很大的发展。但是洪涝灾害的威胁依然存在,特别是涝的问题表现突出。去年发生的特大洪涝灾害,涝灾损失达80%以上。在当前淮河大治之际,除涝问题也越来越引起人们重视。回顾40多年的治淮历程,不能说不重视除涝问题,随着治淮工作的兴衰,淮北地区的治水除涝大体上经历了三个时期。一、老淮委领导时期这一时期淮河流域发生了1950年和1954年二次大洪水,淮北大堤决了口,淮北沿淮地区洪灾 Huaibei area is a large plain (including the Yudong Plain, the middle reaches of Huaibei Plain and the Northern Jiangsu Plain), history is a disaster area.
