The Northern Cyprus Water Supply Project ((トルコ語:KKTC Su Temin Projesi)) is an international water diversion project designed to supply water for drinking and irrigation from southern Turkey to Northern Cyprus via pipeline under Mediterranean Sea. As such, the project is unique in the world. ==Project== Cyprus is short of surface water and groundwater due to inadequate rainfall. The project aims to supply Northern Cyprus with water from Turkey for a timespan of 50 years. Of the 75 million m³ water, 37.76 million m³ (50.3%) will be used for drinking purposes and the remaining part (49.7%) will be allocated for irrigation. Following the realization of the project, irrigated farming at an area of in Mesaoria Plains, one of largest plains of the island, will help improve the standard of living in the region.〔〔 The total investment cost of the project is budgeted at 782 million (approx. US$432 million) consisting of 45.6 million (approx. US$25.2 million) for structures in Turkey, 630 million (approx. US$348 million) for the undersea pipeline and 26.9 million (approx. US$14.9 million) for the structures in Northern Cyprus.〔 ;Stage 1: Alaköprü Dam is in Anamur, Mersin Province on the Anamur-Dragon Creek at elevation. Groundbreaking was done on March 7, 2011. It has a reservoir holding 130.5 million m3 (4.61 billion cu ft). The dam was completed on March 7, 2014.〔〔 ;Stage 2: A pipeline of diameter and length will carry 75 million m³ (2.6 billion cu ft) water of Alaköprü Dam to Anamurium Pumping Station, which connects to under sea pipeline in distance.〔 ;Stage 3: A long under sea pipeline of in depth in Mediterranean Sea will transfer water from Anamurium Plant in Turkey to Güzelyalı Pumping Station in Northern Cyprus. The pipeline will have sensors and transmitters mounted to signal any possible faults for repair.〔〔 ;Stage 4: A pipeline of will elevate water from Güzelyalı Station to the reservoir of Geçitköy Dam close to the city of Girne.〔 The project will be carried out by the Turkish State Hydraulic Works (DSİ). It consists of the construction of a dam and a pumping station at each on both sides as well as a pipeline of running mainly under sea. The construction will have four stages.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Northern Cyprus Water Supply Project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
