Director of Water Establishment Mahmoud Al-Okla explained in a statement to SANA correspondent that the Alouk water project is the only project that is reliable in feeding the city of Al-Hasakah and the western countryside with water due to the heavy production and quality of its water if it produces about 100 thousand cubic meters of water per day distributed to the participants according to Taqneen program However, his discharge from the service, in addition to the theft of some transformers and electrical cables, led the establishment to seek an urgent alternative to provide drinking water to the residents.

According to Al-Akleh, the alternative was through the distribution of water by tankers to the residents, in addition to pumping water to the subscribers through the East Dam and Al-Hamma station, which was not as good as the old station needed maintenance and the institution did not need during the past years due to the presence of the Alouk water station.

He added that the plant and its feeder wells have been maintained in two phases, which included 14 wells and were put directly into the investment. After a few days, 10 additional wells were maintained, bringing the total number of operating wells to 24 out of 30. The remaining six will be in full service soon.

He explained that work is underway in Al-Hama water station to replace the old filters and filters and sterilization in addition to other technical equipment.

Efforts of the Hasakah Water Corporation were supported by the efforts of the Electricity Company, as most of the faults encountered in the Alwuk water plant are electrical due to the damage of cables and power generators feeding the plant as a result of repeated attacks on them.

The Director General of the Electricity Company, Eng. Anwar Al-Okla, stated that the company's workers during the most difficult times when the Turkish regime and its mercenaries attacked the area were present and were able to enter the station and conduct the necessary electrical maintenance.
