Germama River
The Germama (or Kasam) River is a tributary of the Awash River in Ethiopia. The name ''Germama'' comes from the Amharic word which means "frolicking", "boisterous", or "frisky".〔("Local History in Ethiopia, Gena-Gerwane" ) (pdf) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 30 December 2007)〕
The Germama is not a navigable stream, and flows with a great volume during the rainy season. It rises west of Kese Koremash, flowing east to the Awash, its course delineating a few kilometers of the northern boundary of the Awash National Park. The lowlands of the upper Germama was the location of the former Shewan district of Bulga;〔("Local History in Ethiopia, Bua-Buotaro" ) (pdf) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 30 December 2007)〕 the lower course defines the northern boundary of the Shewan district of Menjar.
The Ethiopian Ministry of Water Resources began construction of a dam on the Germama in 2005, which would help irrigate areas along both sides of the river, and in the Dofen and Kebena Mountains.〔("Kesem Tendaho Narrated Report" ), Ethiopian Ministry of Water Resources website, published 19 June 2007 (accessed 14 July 2009)〕 In December 2008, a spokesman for the Ministry announced that the project was 98% complete.〔("5b Brr. Kesem, Tendaho projects nearing completion: Ministry" ), Ethiopian News Agency (accessed 29 April 2009)〕
