Director of Water Development: Significant Inflows Expected in Dams but We Remain Cautious

The Director of the Water Development Department, Eliana Tofa – Christidou, stated that significant inflows of water are expected in the dams due to the ongoing rains, but she is approaching the issue with cautious optimism. While the Kouris dam has a higher fullness compared to last year, the Director stressed the importance of preserving reserves for the coming years. The need for a collective effort was highlighted, with consumers saving water and the Water Boards repairing their networks to reduce losses. The decision on possible water cuts during the summer months will be made at the end of April, after evaluating the final inflows.
