在国务院领导下,在各级政府和有关部门的支持下,经过3年的艰苦努力,我国取水许可制度的实施工作取得了决定性的成果,我们对此表示热烈祝贺。 我国是一个水资源短缺的国家。随着经济的快速发展和人民生活水平的不断提高,水资源短缺的矛盾更加突出,形势更为严峻:一是水的供需矛盾日益突出;二是水污染日益加剧;三是地下水超采日益严重;四是水资源浪费问题日益突出。 Under the leadership of the State Council and with the support of governments at all levels and relevant departments, after three years of hard work, the implementation of the water abstraction permit system in our country has achieved decisive results. We warmly congratulate him on that. Our country is a water-scarce country. With the rapid economic development and continuous improvement of people’s living standard, the contradiction between water shortage is even more serious. The situation is more serious: First, the contradiction between supply and demand of water is increasingly prominent; Second, the water pollution is aggravating; Third, the over-exploitation of groundwater is getting worse Fourth, the issue of waste of water resources has become increasingly prominent.
