Özdemir ÖZBAY ABOUT THE REPORT Gas-politics and Hydro-politics in 21st century have been incorporated into Petro-politics which defined the policies in the cold war period. That state highlights the Hydro-geopolitics of the Eastern Mediterranean. Limited water resources is one of the factors which affects international relations in the Eastern Mediterranean. Therefore, it is important that rational management of water in the region and international co-operation programs be developed. First and foremost step to render regional stability sustainable is building confidence, and implementing policies which are to ratchet up international co-operation and interdependency. Turkey's project to transfer water to Cyprus by a pipeline sets an example for the region to ensure that climate of confidence. Water scarcity on the Island of Cyprus, which is even today going through a stress, is highly likely to become much worse with the impact of climate change. “The Water Transmission Project to Cyprus by a Pipeline” is a very important step forward for a co-operation to be created over water. Such a co-operation would raise the Hydro-politics and Geopolitics importance of the Island of Cyprus which has become a hub for transportation network of energy resources. We wish that this report drafted by contributions of the members of Hydropolitics Academy in their respective disciplines would contribute to regional peace and stability.

Transnational and regional scale co- operation programs are needed for the implementation of sustainable water policies in the region. The first step to this end is building an environment of confidence by taking into account the rights of each country and acknowledging the decisive role of water in sustaining the regional peace and stability. Seeking solutions which remains on the agenda in different parts of the world for a sustainable water management leads new co-operation policies in the international arena. Adoption of a rational water management policy is of high importance for these solution policies to be more effective. It is also important that countries in the region in this framework go for a co-operation for the future in water management of the Mediterranean region. Global climate change makes rational management of water mandatory in the Eastern Mediterranean and throughout the world. New approaches toward water management must be taken in the shortest time possible. Turkey, taking a very important step in the water co- operation, has already linked a river from its geography to Cyprus. Turkey has implemented the Peace River Project assuming expenses in financial and technical areas as well as the security measures. Within that context, it would be a more rational policy for the international community to be in quest of co-operation over this project for the future of the region instead of denying Turkey's approach solely with a political rhetoric. Total 125.98million m3/year of water is used in the TRNC, of which 24,65 million m3 is for potable water and 101,33 million m3 for irrigation. 18 million m3 of that amount is sea water entering Güzelyurt aquifer due to excessive drawing of groundwater. It is estimated in the demand projections for 2035 that need for potable water and tourism and industrial water will be 54 million m3/year3. Having a total of 129,000 hectares of irrigable land, the TRNC will need 649 million m3 of water should the whole area be irrigated with modern technologies4. Taking into consideration the fact that 101,58 m3of water presently has been consumed for agricultural irrigation and that low added-value of this water, a reality arises that entails a different approach in dealing with agricultural sector in the TRNC. 3 “TRNC Water Master Plan Report” Merkez Project Engineering Co.

Regarding that, it would be technically and economically more rational to allot a ratio of 80% of water brought from Turkey for services sector. Within this approach, rational, planful and productive use of water offers a huge opportunity in terms of socio-economic development of the Island and contribution to the resolution of political instability in the region. Recent developments in the Eastern Mediterranean region has further increased the importance of the Peace River Project in building regional cooperation and confidence.

The TRNC's Water Potential and Water Utilization5 Introduction With a size of 3,355 km2, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (the TRNC) constitutes one thirds of the Island of Cyprus. Country's economy by and large relies on agriculture, tourism (16,000 total bed amount) and education. The population is 286,000. As citrus underpins a great deal part of agricultural production, olive and vegetable production is being made for domestic consumption. Modern irrigation techniques are applied in the majority of irrigated agricultural land6. The modernization of irrigation systems has been implemented since 1998 for the effective use of water, and about 80% of it has been completed7. Prime Minister İrsen Küçük stated on 22 March 2011 that the drip irrigation system had been put into practice over the last three years in an area of 6,000 hectares8. 5Yaşar, Doğan, Yıldız, Dursun, "Global Chess in the Eastern Mediterranean" Truva Publication, 2012, Istanbul. 6 ASP, Agricultural Structure and Production, Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Department of Agriculture, TRNC, 1996-2003. 7 ASP, Agricultural Structure and Production, Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Department of Agriculture, TRNC, 1996-2003. 8http://www. kibrispostasi. com/index. php/cat/35/news/49832. Access 1 Feb 2014. 7 Climate and Precipitation The Island of Cyprus has an arid and semi-arid climate and rainfall is unsteady with regard to place and time. For instance, whilst 500 mm of annual average of rainfall is received across the Island, the amount the TRNC holds an average of 373.3 mm9.Amount of the evaporation which is an important element of water budget corresponds to 80% of annual precipitation average10. Based on long-term average, annual rainfall falling on the entire Island of Cyprus varies between 250 mm and 720 mm11.However, this average of annual rainfall is reduced by 40%over 30 years due to climate irregularities. The aftereffect has reduced the amount of surface water flowing into dams by between 20%and 60%. None of the streams in the TRNC shows a continuous flow in a yearlong period12. 9 http://kktcmeteor. org/meteorolojikbilgi/kibris-iklimi. aspx. Access 2 Feb 2014. 10 Goymen, H.

The Island suffers a hydrological drought at about 3-year intervals and during those times excessive volume of groundwater withdrawal has been done to supply water

  • 818 Water Supply from Turkey to Cyprus Island with Suspended
    International Conference on Civil Infrastructure and Construction (CIC 2020) February 2-5, 2020 Doha, Qatar Water Supply from Turkey to Cyprus Island with Suspended Marine Pipeline Izzet Ozturk [email protected] Istanbul Technical University (ITU), Istanbul, Turkey Necati Agiralioglu [email protected] Antalya Bilim University, Antalya, Turkey Omer Ozdemir [email protected] General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works, Ankara, Turkey Nasir Akinci [email protected] Kalyon Group, Turkey ABSTRACT More than 90% of the water requirement for the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC/KKTC) was being supplied from groundwater resources, while the rest was being provided from surface waters and seawater until the 1990s. Due to excessive water abstractions above their natural feeding levels, most of the aquifers had salinization as a result of sea water interference with electrical conductivity (EC) value exceeding 7000 mmho/cm. In order to provide a permanent and long-term solution to the water problem in TRNC, a sea-crossing suspended water transmission pipeline (TRNC Water Supply) project has been developed for sustainable water transfer from Turkey to the Cyprus Island. While the initial feasibility and conceptual design studies have been prepared for State Hydraulic Works (DSI) in 1998-1999, the implementation projects and tender documents have been completed in 2006-2009, and the construction of the suspended marine pipeline has started in 2011 as commissioned by DSI. The engineering supervision and consultancy services of the project have been provided by a team from Istanbul Technical University (ITU). The project, which has been fully completed in October 2015 had a total cost of 1.6×109 TL (600×106 $), including expropriation costs.

Kaynağını Taşeli Platosu’ndan alan Anamur Çayı, Taşeli Yarımadası’nın en güney uç bölümünde yer almaktadır. Taşeli Platosu'nun Akdeniz'e bakan önemli kenar akarsularından biri olan Anamur Çayı, Anamur doğusunda denize dökülmektedir. Uzun yıllar aylık ortalama akım miktarı 24.43 m3/s olup düzensiz rejim özelliği görülmektedir. Karstik kaynaklarla beslenen Anamur Çayı'nın akımı üzerinde yağışlar önemlidir. Kış mevsimindeki yağmur yağışları ile artan debi, bahar mevsiminde kar erimeleriyle maksimum seviyeye ulaşmaktadır. Yaz mevsiminde ise kuraklığa bağlı olarak minimum seviyeye düşmektedir. Yaz mevsiminde akımın düşük, kış ve bahar mevsiminde yüksek olması doğrudan iklim özellikleri ile ilgilidir. Anamur çevresinde görülen yerel iklim özellikleri muz ve çilek gibi geliri yüksek olan tarım ürünlerinin yetiştirilmesine imkan sağlamıştır. Anamur Ovası dışında havzadaki diğer tarım alanlarının sulamaya açılması üretim ve gelir artışına neden olmuştur. Kurak dönemde su ihtiyacının karşılanması için çok sayıda gölet ve baraj yapılmıştır. Bu gölet ve barajların önemli bir bölümü Anamur çevresinin su ihtiyacını karşılamada kullanılmaktadır. Son yıllarda bu akarsu üzerinde Kuzey Kıbrıs Türk Cumhuriyeti’nin (KKTC) su ihtiyacını karşılamaya yönelik proje uygulamaları başlamıştır.
