The water level at the Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest water control project, reached 170 meters as of 8 a.m. Wednesday and is expected to reach the target 175 meters in late October or November, Xinhua said. Reaching the 175-meter water level would enable the Three Gorges Dam to fulfill its functions of flood control and generating electricity to the fullest extent. (Photo: Xinhua/Zheng Jiayu) |
