"Xinhua also stressed in its report that all metrics were still up to standard and all the variables being monitored fell within the design parameters."

"Meanwhile, Wang Hao, a member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and an authority on hydraulics who sits on the Ministry of Water Resources’ Yangtze River Administration Commission, has also assured that the dam is sound enough to withstand the impact from floods twice the mass flow rate recorded on Saturday."

That's all you need to know. If you don't understand what I'm telling you, go watch "Chernobyl".
