	The Chishuihe is one of the larger tributaries of the Yangtze and plans were underway to dam portions of the river to create a navigable waterway to its upper reaches. One of these reservoirs would extend beneath the G76 expressway bridge, reducing the height to about 100 meters. There has been strong opposition to the dam project as the water of the Chishuihe River and its tributaries serves millions of people in the area including the factory of the famous Maotai drink in Renhuai City. We can only hope the dam never materializes.
