Send "glug glug" sound where you are drilling, drilling machine rhythmically several metres high slammed into the ground, although it was the rain, but the drilling team did not break that they form puddles around filled with mud, mud continue to flow to the surface.

Could endure no longer, 3 days ago, Mr Li and the other 4 homes partnership contributed 30,000 yuan, found a drilling team drill.

For residents ' private wells of behavior, Beijing Municipal Bureau of water Affairs has made clear it is illegal, no wells in the procedures to be taken to seal the well. But Mr LEE appeared helpless: "we know that private water well construction is illegal, but there is nothing on such a hot day, who couldn't die of thirst. ”

Residents worry about digging wells pumping ground subsidence

The water, the biggest beneficiary is the drilling team. To drill wells and 30,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan, and residents waiting to drill wells in an endless stream. "We're going to catch that they are too much, can't afford to delay. "A female wearing a raincoat well sinker, said transporting bits and other tools into the well.

Wells residents will be able to get rid of water problems? Mr Lee told the North Green newspaper reporter, well just playing well can't say for use, for a few days to be deposited, otherwise filled with sediment.

Groundwater generally mill communities in 30 meters underground, which belongs to the shallow water. Although wells residents have well water instead, but if the water quality standards are still resident in the mind most no end of things. "The water is washing clothes, washing the dishes, no one would dare to drink. "Said Mr LEE, who beats out water suffused with the smell.

In mill communities of several small supermarkets, crates of mineral water in the door. One shopkeeper said sales of mineral water is very good, whether it is local, or foreign tenants, the FCL to buy water to drink.

Residents can't afford to buy mineral water factory at Tsinghua University campus and toilet water. Mr Chan family pick plastic bucket filled with water, and his ride to four trips a day, an hour back and forth.

However, the watermills there are some people in the community were worried about drilling this thing, these people's home is near water pipeline, the home of the faucet will be weak in the middle of the flow.

She is one, for several days up in the middle of water, her black eye is obvious. "This water directly caused residents to panic, there's no water in the wells. "According to preliminary calculation of Elaine, the whole water community wells have now more than more than 40, if the water is not that they will reach more people.

"Who has seen a place with more than 40 water wells, but water levels in these wells are concentrated in 30 meters underground. "She said, once the excessive extraction of groundwater, the ground would appear to sink, a direct threat to the lives of the residents. "Yesterday, a paulownia tree suddenly fell on the street, next to the smashed homes. "She concluded that trees may be due to drilling-related.

Wells's other problem is water plug. Yesterday morning, Wells-strewn streets suddenly were flooded, water sewer is caught off guard by neighborhood staff worked all morning to get the water clean. In a puddle of wells, of sediment mixed with muddy water flowing down the drain sewers has precipitated a thick sediment.

1000 people get 10,000 people pressing lines

Water mill community in Qing dynasty called mill village, next to the old Summer Palace is said to have pushed water mill, this place has no shortage of water in the past why is reduced to rely on wells for a living?

"Many people make. "She is very safe to say. Worked in the mill neighborhood she, the history of this community very well. According to her introduction, mill communities before 2007 was a quiet place by the Tsinghua, more than 500 multi-family homes are flat, and no outsiders.

"Due to its close proximity to Zhongguancun, foreign tenants began to come looking for shelter. In 2007, the first residents in homes built on the second floor of unauthorised

House for rent. "She said, as a rule, families cannot cover more than two layers of buildings, residents of the urban management authorities, urban management did not come in time to stop.

Illegal agitation as the "butterfly effect"-like spread, three-, four-, or five-story buildings are springing up, these unauthorized to occupy roads, narrow even one car could not pass, rather like the "one-time". At the water mill community at the southern end, residents call the "sky", only half a meter wide on both sides of the road, near almost across between the buildings in the past.

Water mill community number of migrant population? Neighborhood street and Tsing Lung Bridge did not answer directly. But she understood, she said local residents of communities around 1000 people and migrant population of more than 10,000 people.

"The family is renting lives of many, many people rent, water, of course, enough to eat. "According to reports, the mill communities in the 70 's of last century by eating well, 80 wells tested as unqualified, Tsinghua University is responsible for the community to take over lines separated by a water supply, water supply 2500 tons per month. But in recent years, water mill community water use has been growing exponentially, when only the thickness of a wrist lines fail to meet residents ' needs.

She told Northern green newspaper reporter, in 1996, the Tsinghua University to collect extra a month, 4000 water residents can pay half good, left by the residents ' Committee to advance. Later, the neighborhood ran out of money, educate water thing but nothing came of it. As far as she reflected, not after water, residents have bigger water consumption, water every year are very nervous.

After the extreme water, Elaine and the resident representative had gone to Qinghua University. "They said the school holidays now, water stress. "She said, about the water mill community without water, Tsinghua University agreed to increase water pressure, but further away from the water pipeline of homes still without water.

At present, the water mill community water continues. On the way out of the crisis, Tsinghua University, Haidian District and the Government has failed to give an answer.

In response to

Tsinghua University, water has been in short supply

Tsinghua officials told bei Qing newspaper yesterday, the 80 's of the last century, Tsinghua University Beijing requirements can start, separated by a water mill community water supply, when the requirement is 2500 tons of monthly water supply. But as the water district's population increased, supply more and more, today, the thin pipe of water supply pipe was laid that year, Tsinghua for their supply of water has been requested several times that year, but the surge is still far behind the needs of the community.
