Overall Goal: To achieve integrated and sustainable water resources management in the Country. Outputs: A water resources information system (hydrological and meteorological observation stations, computer system, and computer network) is established The staff of WRIC acquires the necessary techniques for hydrological and meteorological observation, data collection, and data processing A section is established within WRIC for capacity building A section is established within WRIC to maintain the water resources information system, and the continuous maintenance is conducted. A system is established to enable the staff of WRIC to provide necessary information on Barada River pollution situation in Damascus water resources management to decision-makers, planners 3. General description of Water Resources Information Center (WRIC) Organization Chart of Water Resources Information Center *It is composed of: -Main Center in the Ministry of Irrigation (MOI) and 2 branches (Basin Center) at both: Barada-Awaj and Coastal Basins. Director General of GCWR GDCB Center WRIC Target area GDBAB Center Water Resources Information Center◌ً Collection & Classification Analysis and System Technical Support Follow up and Section Management Section Section Administration Office 2 5) Reasons of selection of both Barada-Awaj and Coastal Basins: Barada-Awaj Basin: includes Damascus City, and it is in emergent situation regarding water balance, and if water demand were not controlled , drought will occur within 2013 (JICA Development Study II). Coastal Basin: is far from Damascus and has different water conditions from that of Barada-Awaj Basin. -It has relatively rich amount of water resources and remaining water is expected to able to develop in near future to solve the shortage of water in Damascus through a water transferring plan from the Coastal Basin to Barada-Awaj Basin. Hydrological observation network in GDBAB 6. Activities of WRIC 1- Preparation of a hydrological observation network. 2- Collection of data related to water resources supply and demand. 3- Organization, processing and analyzing of collected data. 4- Establishment of an effective communication system to exchange information among 3 centers. 5- Preparation of an annual hydrological report. 6- Provision of information to decision-makers. 7- Capacity building of MOI staff. 8- Sharing of information among related agencies 3 Hydrological observation network in GDCB Grant Aid Assistance Surface Ground Project Meteorology water water Cars A.W.S. 14 Rainfall gauge 14 110 GDBAB Snowfall gauge 34 15 (33) A.W.S. 4 16 Rainfall gauge 5 (5) Lattakia 12 5 Cars Snowfall gauge 4 water Evaporation 4 quality GDCB A.W.S. 3 18 Rainfall gauge 5 Tartus 7 (8) Snowfall gauge 3 Evaporation 2 water quality Automatic weather Station Setup (1)Hydrological Activities New Observation stations Meteorological Station Groundwater Station Surface water Station Groundwater Station 4 Surface water records 9- 9 - 2004 Agricultural Data 5 Geological and Hydrogeological data Statistical data for population Database has 3 categories: PostPUT Main Window 1. water measure points 2. water supply and demand 3. water facility 6 PostGET Output Precipitation (GDBAB) Surface discharge (GDBAB) Fluctuation of Groundwater (GDCB) ھيدروغراف بردى -اجمالي التصريف الشھري ( م م3)- مركز الھامة (2004-1982) 250 200 التصريف 150 الشھري م م 100 /3 شھر 50 0 11 1 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 الشھر oct nov dec jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug sep 7 Groundwater level (Ghouta area- GDBAB) Groundwater Movement (GDBAB) Water quality in Coastal basin Water quality in Barada-Awaj basin Stiff Diagram and Piper Diagram 70 Legend of Hydrogeology of Groundwater / Spring Water 69 83 Hydrogeological Units in Barada Awj Basin NAME (at April 2001) 48 63 82 50 49 Semi-Aquifer (Marl/LT/Clay, Upper Cretaceous) 81 51 71 Aquiclede (Marls/LT, Paleocene-Eocene) Water Quality Stastion in Barada/Awaj Basin 76 Aquifer (LT/Dolomites, Jurasic) 56 68 Well Spring No. ID Name No. ID Name 79 78 77 60 66 6 Aquifer (SS/LT/Basalts, Aptian) 1 BA-GW00001[PD] Adawy 63 BA-SP00001[PD] AL Rouhaiba 3 2 BA-GW00002[PD] Harasta 64 BA-SP00005[PD] Bet saber 67 52 75 3 BA-GW00003[PD] Faseria 65 BA-SP00006[PD] Bet tema 62 7 4 BA-GW00004[PD] Douma 66 BA-SP00007[PD] Ain al fija 4 5 18 Aquifer (LT/Marls, Albian) 55 2 20 5 BA-GW00005[PD] Alrihan 67 BA-SP00008[PD] Bsema 10 19 6 BA-GW00006[PD] Adra 68 BA-SP00013[PD] AL Dumer 47 13 23 42 7 BA-GW00007[PD] Alshifoneyeh (Culture Centre) 69 BA-SP00014[PD] Ain altena 1 12 Aquifer (LS/Dolomites, Cenomanian-Turonian) 36 8 BA-GW00009[PD] Erbin 70 BA-SP00015[PD] Malola 53 8 9 14 41 45 9 BA-GW00010[PD] Hamoreyeh 71 BA-SP00017[PD] Sednaia 11 16 15 40 37 38 10 BA-GW00011[PD] Msraba 72 BA-SP00023[PD] Arneh 17 46 35 39 Aquifer (ALT of LT/SS, U.Eocene-Oligocene) 11 BA-GW00012[PD] Kafar Batna 73 BA-SP00024[PD] Drbl 27 34 28 12 BA-GW00013[PD] Batsawa 74 BA-SP00026[PD] Moughr al mer 21 26 13 BA-GW00014[PD] Mdeara 75 BA-SP00028[PD] Ain al khadra 22 80 Semi-Aquifer (Basalts, Miocene) 14 BA-GW00015[PD] Aftris 76 BA-SP00029[PD] Nabei Barada 61 25 33 15 BA-GW00016[PD] Jesrin 77 BA-SP00030[PD] Kafer al awamed 32 54 16 BA-GW00017[PD] Dabaghat Maamal 78 BA-SP00031[PD] Ain habib 29 31 17 BA-GW00018[PD] Dabaghat 79 BA-SP00032[PD] Nabei Zarzar Semi-Aquifer (Carbonates ALT, Miocene-Quaternary) 18 BA-GW00019[PD] Hosh Nasry 80 BA-SP00035[PD] Ambia 57 19 BA-GW00020[PD] Hosh Alfara 81 BA-SP00040[PD] AL Nabou 30 20 BA-GW00021[PD] Maidaa 82 BA-SP00041[PD] Ain al arak 65 72 73 Aquifer (Basalts.
