The city currently has 10. |
據新華社報道，鑒于日本核電站爆炸后出現了被放射物污染的水體，上海市供水管理處處長孟明群表示，上海將再鉆40口深水井，以備受災應急之用。該市現今有10口深水井。 |
| Meng said water sources near residential areas are more likely to be used in emergencies. |
孟處長說，住宅區附近的水源更可能用來應急。 |
| Zhang Jiayi, director of Shanghai Water Authority, said that inland surface water, such as Shanghai's water resources, is easy to pollute and hard to control once polluted. Thus, the city plans to spend over 1.1 billion yuan in building larger water sources and purification plants and to switch to much safer water sources over next five years, Zhang said. |
上海市水務局局長張嘉毅表示，上海水源屬于內陸地表水，容易受污染，一旦污染，很難控制。他說，該市因此打算在未來五年投資11億元建設更大的水源設施和水凈化站，并計劃過渡到應用更為安全的水源。
