Summary

Description Water from the Ataturk dam and reservoir will irrigate a total of 882,000 hectares of which the Sanliurfa tunnel system will deliver water via gravity-flow to nearly 476,000 hectares onto the Sanliurfa-Harran, Mardin and Ceylanpinar plains. The Sanliurfa-Harran, Mardin and Ceylanpinar plains lie between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, which encompass the famous "Fertile Crescent" -- the birthplace of the Mesopotamian civilizations and agriculture in the Middle East.
