Entry of muddy and turbid water into aquatic life/environmental damage and loss: There is monitoring of the water measurement after the last rains.
The General Director of Environmental Protection of Khuzestan announced the monitoring of the water turbidity of the Hades River after the recent rains and consultation with the directors of the Water and Electricity Organization of Khuzestan and the bodies responsible for improving the quality of the water released downstream.
🔹Mohammed Javad Ashrafi said in a conversation with an IRNA reporter: In recent days, following the rains upstream, we have seen a gradual increase in the turbidity of the Hades River, as this situation has affected the physical and chemical indicators of the water, and in some cases, it has resulted in the loss of aquatic life.
Ashrafi said: According to the reports that were announced, the rains upstream and the volume of muddy water entering Lake Dzhar, as well as the shutdown of the power plant due to the unsuitable water quality for use in the power plant system, were effective factors in releasing water with this level of turbidity downstream.
