Water, 70 million euros worth of work carried out on eight dams in the South
The Southern Apennine District Plan is nearing its goal: the accumulation of reservoirs increases by 300 million cubic meters per year.
The "Piano straordinario per l'acqua" by the Southern Apennine Water District is nearing completion, with a 70-million-euro investment made over six years. The project aims to improve the efficiency of eight large dams, increasing their water storage capacity by 300 million cubic meters per year, and creating connections between water systems in Southern Italy.
Once completed, the project will allow for the supply of water to over 4 million people for a year. The plan, led by Commissioner Vera Corbelli, will be fully operational by mid-2027, with 80% of the funding already secured.
