Safe Water for 800+ Towns in Gilan

An estimated 151,000 households in 818 small towns and villages on the outskirts of urban and rural areas in northern Gilan Province have been supplied with piped water since 2001, managing director of the provincial Water and Wastewater Company said.
"Implementation of water projects in the region has so far cost $23 million," Mohebali Ranjvar was quoted as saying by Paven, the Energy Ministry's news portal.
He said 6,000 kilometers of high-pressure water pipelines have been laid so far. Moreover, 45 deep wells have been dug and 60,000 water storage tanks have been built in Shaft, Amlash, Fouman, Lahijan, Masal, Astara and Langeroud counties.
