In order to move the contents of the subsidiary storage areas to the new museum storage facility, the Secretary-General visited the Kom Oshim Museum and the local museum storage facilities in the Fayoum Governorate. The Ministry intends to develop the museum storage system in accordance with the most recent security and preservation requirements, and this move is part of that goal. Additionally, he convened a conference at the Hawara Pyramid site to go over the status of the groundwater drainage project and the technical research needed to choose the safest ways to handle water both within and outside the pyramid. This will provide entrance to the burial chamber, which is around eighteen metres below the surface.
