Dams to Help Store Surface Runoff in Bushehr

Twelve small and large dams are in different stages of construction in southern Bushehr Province with a total investment of $174 million, the caretaker of Bushehr Regional Water Company said.
The dams will help store surface runoff in different parts of the province, Hossein Bashizadegan noted.
“Bushehr water consumption in agriculture, industry and household sectors exceeds one billion cubic meters per year,” Bashizadegan was quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry news portal Paven.
Water used in different sectors is supplied from surface, groundwater and desalination sources.
