On September 9 the second temporary pumping station project, this one at the Tapa-Sungtai section of the Shihmen Reservoir, was finished. Raw water was pumped to three 70-ton water tanks, from there via pipes to the Shihmen main channel to provide 200,000 to 250,000 tons of water to Pingchen, Lungtan, Yangmei, Chungli and Hsinwu, finally ending the nightmare of the 16-day water shortage.
九月九日，水庫大壩嵩台段蓄水區第二臨時抽水站工程也接續完工，將原水抽至三座七十噸貯水槽，再經由輸水管輸送到石門大圳，提供二十到二十五萬噸的水量，南桃園平鎮、龍潭、楊梅、中壢、新屋等地，終於結束長達十六天的缺水夢魘。
