The total length of the main water conveyance line of the Yangtze River Estuary (Jichao) Project is 330 kilometers, of which the newly excavated river channel is about 100 kilometers, and the rest is transported by using or dredging existing rivers and lakes.

According to the preliminary analysis, in the recent 20 15 level year, 200 cubic meters of water will be diverted from the Yangtze River to the nest and 0/00 cubic meters of water from the Huaihe River per second, which can basically meet the water supply requirements of Bengbu Zhashang Irrigation District and important cities such as Huainan, Bengbu and Fuyang. For many years, the average annual water diversion from the Yangtze River to the Huaihe River will reach more than 100 billion cubic meters, and the water diversion from the Yangtze River to the Huaihe River will reach more than 2 billion cubic meters in severe and persistent drought years. In the next horizontal year of 2030, the river will draw water into the nest at a speed of 300 cubic meters per second, and the nest will draw water into the Huaihe River at a speed of 200 cubic meters per second. For many years, the average water transfer from this river to Huaihe River is about 2 billion cubic meters, and it will reach 3.5 billion cubic meters in unusually continuous drought years. The project of diverting water from the Yangtze River to the Huaihe River permanently covers an area of 42,000 mu, with a population of 42,000 in Qian 'an and 200 million cubic meters of earth and stone excavation. It is estimated that the total investment is about 26.7 billion yuan, including 8.7 billion yuan from the Yangtze River.
