Established by the federal government in 1933 as a largely autonomous agency with wide powers over the lives of the valley residents, including the right to expropriate land, the TVA has inspired numerous river basin development authorities around the world. By June 1942, almost all the power from Grand Coulee and Bonneville Dam, built by the Army Corps of Engineers on the Lower Columbia, was going to war production, most of it to producing aluminium for aeroplanes
In this report they made the following commitment: "The ramnifications and opportunities of policy coherence for development now need to be much more carefully traced and followed through than in the past. It is not known whether binding decisions to build and finance these plants have already been taken, whether the plants will have a sufficiently positive impact, and whether the wastewater of cities like Batman and Siirt will be treated as well

In Assyria the royal palace took the place of the Bah or Egyptian temple; and where the Babylonian or the Egyptian would have left behind him a religious record, the Assyrian adorned his walls with accounts of campaigns and the victories of their royal builders. The plans show five openings in the wall on this side, any of which may have been the gate used when going to Tarbicu, but that adorned with winged bulls probably furnished the shortest route.3
Aquifers and Groundwater, from USGS Water-Science School
If the aquifer is shallow enough and permeable enough to allow water to move through it at a rapid-enough rate, then people can drill wells into it and withdraw water. Rocks that yield freshwater have been found at depths of more than 6,000 feet, and salty water has come from oil wells at depths of more than 30,000 feet

The Rivers of the Garden of Eden
Keep in mind that the course of rivers around and through the vicinity of the Great Rift fault system may have changed or dried up because of block faulting all along the Rift zone. And if a river formerly flowed down what is now the Red Sea basin and southward into Africa at the Afar Triangle, it would certainly fit the description of a river that "compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia." (Genesis 2:13) If we have correctly identified all four rivers, we now have 2 rivers (Euphrates and Tigris) originating today out of Turkey and another running down what was is now the Red Sea south of Israel and deep into Africa, following the path of the present-day Great Rift system

(Click here for a larger map ) The muddy, swampy land between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers provided the natural resources that encouraged people to settle in one place
Turkey, in contrast, refuses to concede the international character of the two rivers and only speaks of the rational utilization of transboundary waters. The Ministry of Water Resources (MWR) is the bulk water supplier for the country and responsible for the whole national water planning, operating twenty-five major dams, hydropower stations and barrages and 275 irrigation pumping stations serving almost the entire irrigated area

The Tigris river only contributes to the Syrian demands on local and private land owners small scale agricultural and sanitary needs, but there are certain projects that have been evaluated by the Syrian government on future use of the river's waters.
