These people will be relocated from their homes near the Danjiangkou reservoir, where sluice will be built to divert water from the Yangtze River to thirsty north China regions including Beijing, Tianjin, Henan and Hebei.

Sources with the resettlement headquarters in Henan said the provincial government has approved new settlement areas with convenient traffic conditions and good soil quality for relocated people.

Xichuan County, Henan, will see the resettlement of 162,000 people, the largest number in a single county, in 185 villages.

Resettlement in Henan is scheduled to be completed in 2011, according to the province's resettlement authorities.

The project is the country's second largest resettlement plan following a similar move to pave way for the Three Gorges Hydro-Power Project, the world's largest, the resettlement of which involved 370,000 people and lasted for 17 years.
