درباره پرژوه

Many dams have been constructed on the upstream of Gorganrood River and also there are some other dams under studies and construction too. Construction of these dams, increasing water needs, releasing agricultural drainage, meeting other saline tributaries with the river and releasing wastewater of downstream cities to the river caused increasing salinity and shortage of water at downstream. The downstream about 12 km of the river will be dried before approaching the sea during end of June, July, August and early September. Golestan Regional Water Co. decided to perform quality and quantity monitoring along this river. To monitor the water quality and provide necessary solutions to maintain and improve the water quality in compliance with standards and indexes, preparation of Environmental Management Plan for development plans in the watershed of Gorganrood River was delegated to Asarab Consulting Engineers Co.

Actual services:
