History
The Ministry of Irrigation was created by Law No. 16 of 1982 as a process of compiling the tasks that were distributed to a number of public agencies (the Ministry of Public Works and Water Resources - the Ministry of the Euphrates Dam) and then attached to them.
The quality institutions in the Euphrates basin that were created after the completion of the dam, which is the Public Institution for Land Reclamation and The General Authority for Investment and Development of the Euphrates Basin, as attached to it by the General Corporation for the Euphrates Dam, the General Company for Water Projects and the General Company for Water Studies were attached to the ministry.
In 2005, with the aim of developing the planning process for the water sector in Syria, it created the “General Authority for Water Resources to replace the general irrigation directorates.” In 2012, the Ministry of Water Resources was created to replace the Ministry of Irrigation, and drinking water institutions and sewage companies in the governorates were linked to it.[3]
