MARECI continuation

MAY 16

Mareci stayed some days in that area - irrigated fields to the east from Cumra and to the west from the Hotamis Storage

Governor Erol said: "The waters in the Göksu Basin, which empties into the Mediterranean Sea, will be transferred to the Hotamış Storage with the Blue Tunnel carried out within the scope of the Konya Plain Projects, and a pond will be created here. This pond will be the largest artificial lake in Turkey with an area of ​​55 square kilometers. There are also areas that will allow life to continue as it used to be. I hope we will see that these facilities are finished in the time and manner we desire. With these projects, the climate and product diversity of our Konya will change accordingly. Most importantly, the center of Konya will reach at least 2050 regarding drinking water. It will not have as many problems as it does. Our concerns about groundwater will disappear. I hope it will be beneficial."

I haven't asked about Mareci in a while. The stork flew over Turkey and is currently on the Imbros Island - officially Gökçeada.
wiki says: The island is the largest island of Turkey, located in Çanakkale Province. It is located in the north-northeastern Aegean Sea, at the entrance of Saros Bay, and has the westernmost point of Turkey (Cape İncirburnu).
