Carrying out the construction of the spillway dam to improve water drainage and protect farmland

The Water Resources Directorate in Idlib has completed all the construction work for the Bal‘a Dam spillway on Canal (A), next to the Bal‘a reservoir in the Al-Rouj Plain, aiming to ensure the discharge of excess water during the rainy season and to reduce the rise and accumulation of water in the surrounding agricultural lands. 
 
The spillway helps improve water drainage efficiency and control water levels safely and systematically, which enhances the water system's capacity to handle rainfall amounts and reduces the risks of water accumulation and potential damage to agricultural lands and water facilities. 
 
This accomplishment comes as part of the Water Resources Directorate in Idlib’s efforts to develop water infrastructure, raise the readiness of water facilities, and improve water management efficiency in the Al-Rouj Plain, supporting the protection of agricultural lands and the continuation of farming activities in the area. 
 
The General Authority for Water Resources expresses its thanks and appreciation to the staff of the Idlib Water Resources Directorate for their efforts in carrying out and completing this work, and for the dedication they have shown in performing their tasks.
