Study says quality of Nile water has improved
A study has indicated that water quality in the River Nile improved considerably in the months of October and November 2007, giving rise to hopes that drinking water quality for many of Egypt's 80 million people may improve.
The quality of Nile water in its main course and in the Rosetta (Rashid) and Damietta (Dimyat) branches showed a 16 percent improvement over the average during the excess discharge period (in October and November when excess water in Lake Nasr behind the Aswan High Dam is discharged into the river), according to a recent study by Egypt's Nile Research Institute (NRI) which is part the National Water Research Centre (NWRC).
