Since Qiangkuang Reservoir was built during the period of Great Leap Forward, there are many serious safety problems of the dam, spillway, and diversion tunnel. Therefore, it is urgent to carry on the risk mitigation and strengthening and reinforcement of Qiangkuang Dam and Reservoir, eliminate all kinds of dangers in the project in order to make it operate normally, and perform its proper economic benefits and social benefits of flood prevention, irrigation, aquiculture, generate electricity and so on. Based on the field survey for Construction Map Design (CMD), no inundation impacts are caused by the Project. However, the land requisition of the flood control road with the length of 3469m and a connecting channel with the length of 120m will acquire 32.01 mu land permanently,
