Yazd Water Loss Inadmissible

Non-revenue water in Yazd Province is 20%, of which 10% is real loss (through leaks, also referred to as physical loss) and 10% is apparent losses (theft and meter measuring errors), provincial head of the Water and Wastewater Company (Abfa) said.
“Water supply and transmission pipelines in the region stretches over 3,000 kilometers, of which 35% is old and should be replaced soon to cut the huge water loss as the province struggles with the worsening water crisis,” Asghar Riazati was quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry news website.
Daily water demand in the arid central region is close to 230,000 cubic meters, of which 120,000 cubic meters are extracted from depleting ground resources and the rest is piped from neighboring cities like Isfahan, he said.
