Tabnak.ir published a piece last week announcing the creation of a new organization dedicated to the study of the environmental effects of large-scale water diversion from Khuzestan province. Khuzestan is known for is extensive agricultural base (3,300,000 hectares) and is home to Iran’s only navigable river, the Karun, proposed in the late 80’s as a potential source of fresh water exports to the Arab Gulf States. The society’s website, www.waterkhz.ir, is still under construction.
