Шаблон:Infobox dam Alaköprü Dam (Шаблон:Lang-tr) is a concrete-face rock-fill dam on the Anamur (Dragon) Creek in Anamur district of Mersin Province, southern Turkey. The development is backed by the Turkish State Hydraulic Works (DSİ). The dam was primarily built as part of the Northern Cyprus Water Supply Project, to supply water for drinking and irrigation to Northern Cyprus.[1][2][3]

Preliminary construction on the dam began on November 2, 2010 and the official groundbreaking took place on March 7, 2011. After the completion of the Шаблон:Convert long diversion tunnel, construction of the dam started on August 9, 2012 with placement of the foundation.[3][4] The dam was completed on schedule, on March 7, 2014 but its reservoir did not begin to collect water until February 2015.[5][6] The dam's 26 MW hydroelectric power station is expected to be commissioned in 2015.[7]

Up to Шаблон:Convert water from the dam's reservoir, which makes more than half of its capacity, will be transferred to Geçitköy Dam in Northern Cyprus via an Шаблон:Convert pipeline crossing the Mediterranean Sea under Шаблон:Convert depth.[3][4]

Part of the populated places in the area such as the villages of Sarıağaç, Akine, Çaltıbükü and Ormancık will be submerged in the reservoir of Alaköprü Dam.
