Littani Authority Restricts Water Use for Irrigation

The National Authority for the Litani River sent three official letters to the Ministers of Energy and Water, Interior, and Agriculture, demanding urgent actions to prevent the use of Litani River water, its tributaries, and treated sewage for irrigating crops within the upper basin of the Beka'a and Baalbek-Hermel districts. The goal is to protect public health and food safety from pollution caused by untreated sewage water, especially given the ongoing discharge of these waters into the river, which poses a threat to water resources and food security. The letters emphasize the need to activate oversight and enforce legal measures to combat violations, eliminate polluted sources, and implement necessary procedures to prevent the circulation of contaminated agricultural products. They also highlight that field monitoring results show high levels of microbial contamination, endangering consumer health and the environment.
