Get to know Agam Shafaram. As a result of the heavy rains that hit the area, a lake, temporary of course, with a depth of between 2 and 3 meters is gradually forming near Shafaram.
The reason for the formation of the lake is the fact that the Kishon Drainage and Rivers Authority diluted the water in this area to prevent a situation where the entire Haifa Bay is flooded with water (as happened in the unforgettable winter of 1991). The Kishon Drainage and Rivers Authority fought this rare rain event using the dam system to prevent extreme flooding of the entire Haifa Bay area.
Why not do something similar with Nahal Hagaton, which floods Naharia every time?
It is also possible to prevent damage and loss of life and to store rainwater - this is an investment that the savings it will bring is enormous.
Let the lake remain for the summer as a place to go for a picnic
