Over the last 24 hours, the rainfall situation in Lushnja and Divjaka has been generally normal, with no water on agricultural lands and in areas that traditionally flood every year.
The three main reservoirs in the area continue to operate at full capacity. The Tërbuf reservoir is located at a depth of -140 cm, the Karavasta reservoir at -180 cm, and the Divjaka reservoir at -40 cm.
According to authorities, the pumps are operating with one or two units, depending on the flows.
Shkumbini is currently flat with its banks, while the most complicated situation is on the Seman River. The latter has overflowed its banks in the area of Ngurëza e Vogël to Imshtë, where the lands within the embankment are at low elevations.
Last evening, it was learned that small livestock and cattle were evacuated from areas at risk, as large floods were expected. Currently, the floods have not yet reached their peak, but are expected to arrive this afternoon, from the Osumi stream and its basin.
Meanwhile, flows from Devolli remain minimal, as they are deposited at the Banja hydroelectric power plant, which releases only the amount necessary for energy production, around 100 m³/s.
According to the head of the Lushnje sector of the Directorate of Drainage and Irrigation Board, engineer Ferdinand Dervishi, the situation is more than normal and the river's overflow has flooded 180 hectares of land within the embankment, while stables with small livestock and cattle have been evacuated.
