Projects to Address Water Shortage in Tabriz, Ardabil

Projects are underway in two northwestern provinces of East Azarbaijan and Ardabil to help alleviate water shortage in the region.
A project to build a new pipeline to transfer water from Nahand Dam to Tabriz, the capital city of East Azarbaijan Province, has made 98% progress, the representative of Tabriz in Majlis said.
“The completion of the project will address the water shortage problem in the northern regions of Tabriz,” Seyyed Mohammad Reza Mir-Tajeddini was also quoted as saying by Mehr News Agency.
The new pipeline, which has cost about $2 million, is expected to be completed by October, he added.
