Description
A critical water shortage in Jordan’s most populous towns, cities, and villages will be alleviated in early 1985 when the regional water supply network is completed. The system will divert raw water from the East Ghor Main Canal, an irrigation canal in the Jordan River Valley, and deliver treated water through 38 km of pipeline to the Amman metropolitan area. The water will change from an elevation of 230 meters below sea level and be pumped in a series of steps to a treatment plant near the city at an elevation of 1040 meters above sea level. The 121 ML (32 mgd) initial capacity of the system will approximately double the currently available supply for the city’s nearly 1 million people. Includes figures.
