WUHAN, Aug. 26 (Xinhua) -- The Three Gorges ship locks resumed operations on Tuesday after navigation had been suspended for a record 174 hours due to floods.
The first ship after the suspension was lifted entered the lock chamber at around 3 p.m. on Tuesday, as the outflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir was reduced to 44,500 cubic meters per second at 2 p.m., reaching the navigable standard.
