Emergency Water Supply to Kerman in 2 Months

The project to supply water to Kerman City, in southern Kerman Province, will be completed in two months, the managing director of the National Water and Wastewater Engineering Company said.
“Contractors are laying pipes in different regions so that water is transferred from existing wells as an emergency measure to help alleviate shortages in the provincial capital, the Energy Ministry news portal Paven quoted Hamidreza Janbaz as saying.
Water demand in Kerman is 3,000 liters per second while maximum water production capacity in the arid city is 1,850 liters per second. 
Despite the chronic water deficit, there are no restrictions on water use and no plans to ration it, Janbaz said.
