I noticed this article in a Turkish paper-



TURKEY TO SUPPLY TRNC WITH WATER



The Turkish Minister of Environment and Forests Veysel Eroglu has announced that Turkey will be providing water to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus through a ‘floating system’ that has never before been used by any other country in the world. In a statement he made to the Anatolian news agency Mr. Eroglu said although Turkey had tried many different ways in the past to supply water to the island and failed, it was certain that this new method of bring water to the island through underwater pipeline will be successful. The project envisages transporting water from the Anamur Dragon Stream through an 80 km plastic pipeline that would be submerged 250 meters below the sea. The pipeline will be attached to large weights which are essential to prevent it floating on the surface. A pumping station to be constructed on the TRNC coast will then send the water to the Gecitkoy and Alakopru dams along a pipe
