President Tebboune orders the completion of the two desalination plants in “Timengset and Tindouf” – New Algeria

Today, Tuesday, the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces and Minister of National Defense, issued a set of instructions, directives and orders to the Minister regarding the water sector in order to ensure the distribution and abundance of drinking water in all states of the country and improve drinking water supply services, during his presidency of the Council of Ministers meeting.

Following the presentation of the Council of Ministers’ agenda, and then the government’s activity by the Prime Minister, during the past two weeks, President Tebboune ordered the Minister of Water Resources and Water Security, the necessity of starting the completion of the two water desalination plants in both Timangset and Tindouf, within the next month for the benefit of the residents of the two states, stressing that these two projects are considered strategic for the residents of our great south.

In the same context, the President of the Republic ordered the establishment of a new station in Tindouf to treat and filter used water, especially for promising agricultural projects.

During the meeting, the President also ordered the doubling of precautionary, control and caution measures during the operations of discharging water in excess of the capacity of full dams.

In the context of his directives, the President of the Republic stressed that the utmost importance should be given to respecting the plans for distributing drinking water nationally, throughout the rest of the year, considering that the incident of tap water being cut off for the residents of the state of Chlef, before its recent return, is completely unacceptable, and will entail bearing full responsibilities, warning strongly against any laxity that leads to such an incident.
