BEIJING, Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- China's central authorities initiated1 a level-four emergency plan on Sunday afternoon in response to severe flooding in southwest China's Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality.

affected3 by the disaster since Aug. 30. That includes one death, and some 149,000 have been
evacuated4 or are in

The flood had also caused the
collapse6 of some 1,200 houses, damage to another 4,700, and 450 million yuan in direct economic losses (70.87 million U.S. dollars).
According to the Sichuan
provincial7 civil affairs authority, the flood had had an impact on 1.583 million local people, left 12 dead and 15 missing. Some 174,000 had either been evacuated or in need of life assistance.
