And that means danger for the residents of four villages of this valley. Engineers and workers are building a flood dyke.

Local Township official Zhang Aishe said, "We have a 100-member team monitoring the situation around the clock. "

The county is putting emergency measures into place. People are dredging waterways and strengthening riverbanks.

Zhao Chengjiang, director of Bu'erjin County Flood Control Office, said, "We have prepared 2,700 wired bales to use in dams and will send them to the possible flood zones."

The county is closely monitoring the situation in the upper reaches of the rivers. Some residents have already left, and a larger number are prepared for departure.
