Call for more action to keep Beijing's water supply clean

Officials have been urged to do more to protect the environment at a reservoir that supplies water to Beijing through the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.

Mu Weimin, the Party chief at Nanyang, Henan province, said that safeguarding the water quality at Danjiangkou Reservoir is a key task that should receive more attention from the city government.

A number of steps have already been taken, however.
