Abstract

The protection of drinking water sources is an important part of water pollution control and management in China. Drinking water sources is not only an important source of water for residents, but also plays an irreplaceable role in agricultural irrigation, flood control, power generation, aquaculture and so on. However, due to the expansion of people's production and living activities and the lack of awareness of environmental protection, many areas of our country have been polluted to different degrees, which seriously affects the safety of people's drinking water and the quality of ecological environment. Therefore, the effective treatment and scientific protection of drinking water sources is a serious problem to be solved. Taking the research and management of Kite rock reservoir drinking water sources in Qichun as an example and interviewing and investigating County Water Conservancy Bureau, Aquatic Products Bureau and State Marine Board in Qichun, the author conducted a thematic research about the water operation and management of kite rock reservoir and made a number of recommendations on protection of drinking water sources in the reservoir. Suggestions put forward include: 1) The operation rights of aquaculture in the reservoir should be reclaimed according to the law. Ecological aquaculture, density control and pollution reduction need to be eagerly promoted in order to realize the reservoir’s natural development, scientific breeding and reasonable fishing. Events that disrupt the balance of alga in the reservoir should be strictly prohibited; 2) Impose a ban on ferries to resolve the major potential hazard for water pollution in the reservoir a step further; 3) Prohibit reservoir tourism and leisure activities to prevent the pollution caused by relevant activities.
