"Transformation of government functions" is an urgent need and a key measure to prevent risks,control inflation,stabilize growth and promote high-quality economic development under the current situation,as well as an objective requirement for the sustainable development of economy and society.As a key breakthrough of this transformation,simplifying administration and delegating power is the important link in releasing the reform dividends and building an upgraded version of China's economy,the essential requirements of the government governance system and capacity modernization,as well as the basic guarantee to enhance the credibility,execution and authority of the government to serve people better.The fourteenth plenary session of the CPC Central Committee stressed that "we should give local governments more autonomy and encourage more creative work to accelerate the construction of a work system with clear authority-responsibility relationship,smooth operation and full vitality from the central to the local".The guiding opinions of the Ministry of Water Resources on deepening the reform of farmland and water conservancy also clarify a number of reform measures such as innovating the mode of agricultural water use,innovating the mechanisms of multiple investments,accelerating the reform of agricultural water price,promoting the reform of property right system,innovating the mechanism of project management and protection,etc.These policy documents above provide the basic compliance and direction for the reform of "simplifying administration and delegating power" in irrigation areas in the new era.The purpose of abolition,simplification and decentralization power is to promote social innovation and strengthen social management services more effectively which would weave a safety net covering the whole people and protecting the basic livelihood of society.It is also required to manage the management well,strengthen and improve macro management continuously,optimize administrative management process and apply advanced management concepts into the actual management.Based on the case study of "decentralization" reform in Longquanshan Irrigation District of Sichuan Province,this paper analyzes the background,motivation and experience of the integration of administrative agencies,decentralization of administrative approval authority and decentralization of water and soil resources development authority in thereform of "decentralization" in Irrigation District.Then it studies the division of authority and responsibility,inter governmental relationship and approval authority of water administrative departments at the provincial and municipal levels after the integration of agencies,the allocation of water resources allocation right after the decentralization,the government supervision and market operation after the decentralization of water and soil resources development right,etc.The replicable,referential and referencable reform experience and enlightenment are extracted and summaried to establish an efficient and orderly irrigation administration system and explore a set of operation mode suitable for modern irrigation administration.Based on the theory of inter governmental relations,government failure and market failure,and the theory of new public service,this paper analyzes and puts forward the following views from the case of "simplifying administration and delegating power" in Longquanshan Irrigation District of Sichuan Province:(1)the flat administrative management system is conducive to reduce the administrative level of the irrigation district,reduce financial expenditure,improve the operation efficiency of the organization which has a beneficial effect on clarifying the rights and responsibilities of the upper and lower water administrative organizations in the irrigation area management and establishing a clear list of rights and responsibilities;(2)the allocation right of water resources in the management rights of the irrigation area is the absolute core and the key point of interest interweaving.This paper holds that under the premise of centralized and unified allocation of water resources,promoting the appropriate devolution of water resources allocation right to the water administrative department of the administrative region where the vast majority of water users are located will better serve water users,improve the efficiency of water resources allocation and enhance water conservation.(3)Large and medium-sized irrigation areas are rich in water and soil resources.Based on the premise of strengthening protection,part of the resources are reasonably released according to law,the mode of cooperation between the government and the market is applied and the operation of resource capitalization is realized which would save the administrative cost and widen the benefits of irrigation areas.And this introduced market mechanism also plays a positive role in the protection of irrigation resources.From the perspective of this paper,the simultaneous use of the government's visible hand and the market's invisible hand in the development and utilization of water and soil resources in irrigation area would promoteand restrain each other to maximize the value of water and soil resources in irrigation area.
