The plan provides a strategy to cope with the water deficit recorded in some regions in Morocco during the summer. ONEE hopes to secure the water supply in the country by undertaking a short-term action plan for the 2018 summer.
Forty-two centers will expected to have a water deficit this summer, and the program will reinforce their potable water supply.
In this regard, ONEE is developing new water sources, deepening existing wells, and maintenance existing water sources to allow for more efficient production and distribution.

These measures will eliminate the water deficit in 10 centers by the end of 2018, 15 centers by 2019, and the remaining 17 centers beyond 2019.
