Soan Reservoir

Soan Reservoir site stretches from Dhok Pathan bridge towards Rawalpindi.

To collect South Punjab's flood water share, 15 to 17 MAF lake will be enough.
In order to make it a national reservoir, 35-38 MAF will be "optimum over-design".
Thus Sparing 6-8 MAF for Indus delta flows, and 25-30 MAF for winter and late spring water needs in all provinces.

Picture is worth a thousand words, following two maps shows lake sizes for 17 and 38 MAF capacity.
