According to this article which I found as a source for this page, the Iraq government is:
In addition to the Mosul Dam, it is preparing to rebuild the Badush Dam in Ninawa province, which ceased operation decades ago.
The Ministry of Water Resources on May 18th began preparing technical studies in preparation for the project.
which would be a permanent solution to the flood risk. I don’t know what the original source for that article is, but here is a more recent one that corroborates it:
“The ministry is working to re-evaluate the status of the Badush Dam, in coordination with international companies, and in the event that positive results of the re-evaluation appear, the ministry will begin to complete the dam,” he added.
Can anyone corroborate this with additional data on the Iraq government’s intentions? If it was really going to happen, I would consider it ca(u)se closed from our perspective.
