MR3: GAM Lagoon Remediation Project Provision of EUR 10,300,000 for the construction of remedial infrastructure  which involves a water tunnelling system that aims to drain a 200,000 m2  contaminated lagoon in the city of Russeifa (15 KM north east of Amman), to  restore the original stormwater flow from Marka into Zarqa river, thus  preventing the lagoon from forming again and mitigating the associated  environmental hazards (the "Project").  This contaminated lagoon was created due to the obstruction of natural water  stream, which used to flow from Wadi Marka (a rainwater catchment area  south-west to the lagoon), into Zarqa River (north-east of the lagoon). The  obstruction, which was mainly due to industrial and mining activities in the  area, resulted in complete blockage of water flow, thus creating a stagnant  pond. With time, the lagoon got heavily polluted with industrial and domestic  sewage, debris, waste, and other contaminants. The situation has significantly  deteriorated since 2011, underpinned by the refugee crisis, which placed  unprecedented pressure on the surrounding wastewater network resulting in more  sewage leakages into the lagoon.  The Project aims to finance the infrastructure solution for the remediation  of the current hazardous lagoon using a water tunneling system,  prevention of  new wastewater leakages into the lagoon, and setting up the required  infrastructure work for the collection and transfer of storm water from the  lagoon back to the Zarqa river to restore the original flow of the river stream.
