| ABSTRACT: | The purpose of the survey of the East Bank Jordan area was to establish by geological, hydrological and engineering surveys the sources of both groundwater and surface water supplies in the project area and to make proposals for their development. This report summarizes the outcome of the Geological Survey and Engineering Investigations which were carried out during the period September 1962 to November 1964 on the Water Resources of the East Bank Jordan area. The report also included Water Resources Survey of the Zarqa District and Investigation of the East Bank Main Wadis, and Water Resources Survey of the North-East Bank Jordan area and Investigation of the Main Wadis. The survey covered the geology and groundwater studies of the North-Eastern Jordan Area from the River Yarmouk to Madaba. The Engineering Studies for development of irrigation, storage and hydro-power on the main Wadis were extended to include, in addition to this area, the southern Wadis outfalling into the Dead Sea. The study comprises six volumes: * Vol. 1 : Summary Report. * Vol. 2 : East Ghor Side Wadis. * Vol. 3 : Southern Wadis. * Vol. 4 : Part I - Hydrology and Sediment.
