No, not just the dam. I haven't searched much, but in the last decade there was not enough rain like before. And our agriculture is not yet optimized, so it consumes much of the water, (about more than 90% of the Iran's water). In past few years they used to open it for a short periods during the year, but this year they haven't done it. (At least not yet). Also this river is located in centeral Iran, wich is mostly arid, so it is supporting other cities in central Iran as well (such as Yazd).
Uhum, got it. I get curious because here in Brazil there are loads of discussion on river managment on the north regions, where climate is very arid.
