The Republic of Azerbaijan is located in an active seismic zone. The seismic hazard of the construction sites should be taken into account during the design of the buildings and facilities built in this area, including water reservoirs. In order to improve the water supply, promote the creation of modern farms on arable land and support the employment of the population, it is planned to build a new dam on the old dam in order to increase the useful volume of the Alijanchay reservoir in the Oguz and Sheki regions, and the Vilashchay reservoir in the Masalli region. Before the construction of water reservoirs on the Alijanchay and Vilashchay rivers, complex seismological, geological and geophysical studies were conducted in the area and the seismic hazard level of the area was assessed.
