A |     　　讯 据水利部消息，受降雨影响，8月12日12时24分，淮河中游支流沙颍河周口水文站（河南周口）水位涨至警戒水位（46.10米），依据主要江河洪水编号规定，此次洪水编号为“沙颍河2026年第1号洪水”。　　8月12日上午，国家防总副总指挥、水利部部长李国英主持专题会商，滚动分析研判沙颍河汛情发展态势，提前部署防御工作。水利部加强雨水情监测预报预警，提前针对安徽、河南2省启动洪水防御Ⅳ级应急响应，督促地方强化水工程调度，落实落细洪水防御各项措施，提前做好蓄滞洪区运用准备和危险区群众转移工作，全力确保人民群众生命安全。    WATERTOWN, N.Y. -- A state of emergency was issued Thursday in a northern New York county, where the Fort Drum U.S. Army base is located, following a major water main break that has left tens of thousands without water. Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado said 32,000 gallons (121,000 liters) of drinking water from six of the state’s regional stockpiles, as well as 11 water tankers, an incident management team and other staff, were being deployed to Watertown, a community of more than 24,500 people located more than 170 miles (275 kilometers) northwest of Albany. Smaller nearby communities have also been affected by the water shortage. Officials said a total of more than 45,000 people have been impacted.“We’re here with you and we’re going to do everything we can moving forward to ensure that we resolve this as fast as we can,” Delgado said during an evening news briefing. He was joined by other state and local leaders, as well as officials from Fort Drum, which has provided thousands of gallons of drinking water from its own system to the community as well, with promises to provide more if necessary.Watertown Mayor Jeffrey Smith said a 12-foot-long (3.6-meter) piece of piping from the city's water treatment plant, likely about 50 years old, split late Wednesday night. He said after the piping is expected to be repaired on Thursday night, workers will begin pressurizing the system, a process that could take 24 to 36 hours. Smith warned that more water breaks might occur, given the age of parts of the water system.“We're hoping by Saturday, Sunday at the latest, that the reservoirs and the system is filled and then another two-to-three days after that, you'll have to boil water,” said Smith, estimating people will have to boil water for 48 to 72 hours. Multiple water stations were being set up in Watertown where residents can obtain bottled and canned water, as well as fill up their own containers. Both drinking and non-potable water is available. The Watertown City School District will be closed on Friday.。　　目前，水利部6个工作组正在安徽、河南两省暴雨洪水防御一线协助指导。版权申明：凡注有“”或电头为“”的稿件，均为独家版权所有，未经许可不得转载或镜像；授权转载必须注明来源为“”，并保留“”的电头。    。
