A recent inspection conducted by the Directorate of Water Engineering at the Ministry of Equipment and Water found no safety threats at the Bouassim Dam following recent rainfall, the ministry announced Tuesday.
According to an official statement, ministry experts carried out a comprehensive assessment and detected no signs of instability in the dam or its foundations. The inspection also found no water leaks at the dam’s base, and tests on its two bottom outlets confirmed they were functioning normally.
The ministry acknowledged minor water seepage on the lower facade but emphasized that it posed no risk due to the dam’s structural design, which ensures stability.
Reaffirming its commitment to water infrastructure safety, the ministry stressed that all stages of dam design, construction, and operation adhere to Law No. 30.15 on dam safety.
The Bouassim Dam, with a storage capacity of 100,000 cubic meters, was completed in 2014 and officially commissioned in September 2015, according to ministry data.
