Ammon News - The storage capacity of the Kingdom's principal dams stands at 38 percent, or more than 106 million cubic meters (MCM), of their entire storage capacity of 280 mcm, a 17 percent increase over the previous year.
According to a statement issued by the Ministry of Water on Tuesday, the Jordan Valley Authority began implementing the summer water supply plan for the current year in May to provide sufficient quantities of water.
It is worth noting that the majority of dam water in the Kingdom is utilized for agriculture, but certain dams are used for industry and water supply for drinking purposes.
