With programs to revive Urmia Lake moving ahead, seven billion cubic meters of water from dams flowed into the world famous lake in the past decade and is increasing, head of Urmia Lake Restoration Project said.
“Close to 300 million cubic meters of water will be gradually discharged into the lake from five dams in West Azarbaijan Province within two months,” Farhad Sarkhosh was quoted as saying by IRNA.
Average water flow into the lake is 61 cubic meters per second or five million cubic meters a day, Sarkhosh added.
