Jordan Valley Authority reduces silt at King Talal Dam
The Jordan Valley Authority, in cooperation with the International Union for Conservation of Nature and the Dutch government, has launched a four-year project costing 10 million euros to reduce the sedimentation of King Talal Dam by at least 10% by the end of the project. The goal is to protect the dam, enhance its efficiency, and ensure its sustainability by addressing the sources of sedimentation through engineering and natural solutions, with a focus on reducing soil erosion and restoring vegetation cover. The project aims to improve the dam's storage capacity, which plays a vital role in irrigating the farmers of the Jordan Valley, reflecting the Kingdom's strategies to address water challenges and climate change.
