Director of the Beirut and Mount Lebanon Water Authority dismissed from office
The director general of the Beirut and Mount Lebanon Water Authority, Jean Gebran, was dismissed from his position by the government and placed at the disposal of the Minister of Energy and Water, Joe Saddi, the latter told L'Orient-Le Jour on Wednesday. "Gebran's term ended in 2021. Since then, he had been handling day-to-day management," Saddi explained, pointing out that the board of directors' term at the institution had also expired. "Unfortunately, this kind of situation is common in the administration." When asked about immediate measures, the minister stated that "the most senior official in the hierarchy will serve as interim head of the office." He also announced his intention to soon submit to the Administrative Development Ministry and the Civil Service the list of required qualifications for the role, so that a call for applications may be launched "as soon as possible." He also expressed the wish to see a new board of directors appointed as soon as possible. Contacted by L'Orient-Le Jour, Gebran did not respond. In recent years, the Lebanese public administration has suffered from repeated political crises, the presidential vacancy, which lasted from October 2022 to January 2025, and the economic collapse, which, due to the sharp depreciation of the national currency, has greatly eroded salaries in the public sector.

BEIRUT — The director-general of the Beirut and Mount Lebanon Water Authority, Jean Gebran, was removed from his position by Cabinet and placed at the disposal of Minister of Energy and Water Joe Saddi, the latter said on Wednesday. "Mr. Gebran's term ended in 2021," Saddi told L'Orient Today. "Since then, he has been handling day-to-day business." The institution's board of directors' term has also expired, Saddi explained. "This kind of situation is unfortunately common in the administration." "The most senior official in the hierarchy will serve as acting head of the office," the minister said. Saddi intends to submit a list of qualifications required for the position to the Ministry of Administrative Development and the Civil Service shortly, so that applications can be called for "as soon as possible." He also expressed hope that a new board of directors would be appointed as quickly as possible. Gebran did not respond to L'Orient Today's requests for comment. In recent years, the Lebanese public administration has suffered from endemic corruption, recurring political crises, a presidential vacancy (from October 2022 to January 2025) and economic collapse, which, due to the sharp depreciation of the national currency, has severely eroded salaries in the public sector.
