Partial transfer of the Siberian Rivers flow to the Aral Sea basin – among the first developers of this project were such well-known engineers and scientists as Ya. Demchenko (1871), the Monastyrievy brothers (1907–1923), B. Bukinich (1920–1930), N. Botvinkin (1924–1934), A. Miler-Schulga (1934–1950), I. Gerardy (1970), A. Voznesensky (1972), and G. Voropaev (1978). The need of such partial transfer of the Siberian river flow to the Aral Sea basin was substantiated by the USSR’s leading research and design-survey institutions.
