The meeting concluded by identifying the best three candidate sites for the establishment of nature reserves in the governorate out of 9 sites based on specific criteria, and the strengths and weaknesses will be studied through these sites to choose the optimal site for the establishment of a nature reserve with the aim of establishing biological diversity suitable for climatic conditions in that region, taking into account the quality of the soil, the depth and quality of groundwater, and the best possible use of precipitation water during the rainy season, relying mainly on renewable energy based on solar radiation and the presence of animals as well as rare and remote range from paved roads and services.
