治淮工程是新中国成立后建设的第一个全流域、多目标的大型水利工程。从1950年冬开始,党和人民政府在“蓄泄兼筹”的治淮方针指导下,先后组织实施了三期工程建设项目,有计划地对淮河流域进行综合治理。治淮工程经历了从点的治理,到点线结合的治理,再扩展到面的治理的过程,不仅修建了众多的大中型水库,提升了拦蓄洪水的能力,而且整治了淮河干支流,提高了防洪泄洪能力,有效地遏制了淮河水患。治淮工作取得了举世瞩目的建设成就,也留下了值得汲取的宝贵教训。
The Huai River project is the first large-scale water conservancy project of the whole basin, with multi- ple objectives, constructed after the establishment of the new China. Since the beginning of the winter of 1950, the CPC and the people' s government, under the guideline of "flood storage and discharge", has organized three phases of construction projects, and systematically carried out the comprehensive management of the Huai River Basin. The project has gone through from the point of governance, governance of point-line combination, and then to the governance of all sides. Many large and medium-sized reservoirs have been built, which enhances the flood storage capacity, and the Huai River tributaries have been rectified, which improves the flood discharge capacity and effectively checks the flood of Huai River. The Huaihe River has made remarkable achievements, and also left valuable lessons to be learned.
