The PRC's Ministry of Water Resources reflected the high priority given by the government to strengthening reservoirs by establishing the National Reservoir Strengthening Program (NRSP) in 2001. Although the aim was to complete NRSP during the Eleventh Five-Year Plan (2006–2010) period, it was also intended that reservoir rehabilitation would continue beyond the program. More than 30,000 unsafe reservoirs were in need of rehabilitation. Also, class I and II reservoirs were not part of the NRSP but were expected to deteriorate and will need rehabilitation.
