CITY AUTHORITIES INDIFFERENT
Neither the city administration nor the administration of the Kentron
community are concerned over the polluted condition of the Hrazdan gorge.
Such conclusion can be made after the action for refuse collection initiated
by Heifer international organization.
Head of the Heifer Armenian office Anahit Ghazanchyan informed that the
recent investigations of the gorge showed that the pollution of some parts
of the gorge has reached rather dangerous level. In her words, many sectors
of the gorge turned into dumps.
With spades and nets the action initiators cleaned a 50-meter sector. To
note, representatives of the city administration and Kentron community
failed to keep their promise to attend the action. However representatives
of the Cleanness Kentron came to see the works but refrained to join.
Coordinator of the Heifer Armenian Office Vadim Uzunyan informed that the
representatives of the Cleanness Kentron will join the works only in case
they are paid. `This sector belongs to the Kentron community, but they do
nothing to clean it from refuse. Our organization is ready to provide refuse
collection equipment and place litter-bins under the condition that the
authorities will take control over the process', he noted.
At about 5 p.m. the Yerevan city administration has sent a refuse collection
vehicle to the Hrazdan gorge. It should be also noted the workers were paid
by the initiators of the action.
