Dams 73.4% full by September 16

Rabat - The volume of water retained in Morocco's dams have reached, by September 16, 11.4 billion cubic meters, that is 73.4% of their full capacity, up from 37.4% last year.

The figures were released Wednesday by the State secretariat in charge of water, which noted that some dams have reached their full filling capacity as a result to the recent heavy rains.

Alwahda, Africa's second largest dam, has retained 2.3 billion cubic meters of water, that is 63.2% of its capacity, the source said.
