KAPAN, MARCH 21, NOYAN TAPAN. The project on elimination of the
consequences of the landslide in Mushegh Harutyunian Street of Kapan
has not yet been implemented. The project worth 150 mln drams (about
340 thousand USD) was developed by the Japanese company Jaika under the
program on landslide management. According to a preliminary agreement,
the Japanese government was to earmark 100 thousand USD of this amount,
while the remaining money was to be allocated from the state budget,
by the government and other donor organizations. Armen Sargsian,
Chairman of the Union of Kapan Communities, told NT correspondent
that the Japanese government agreed to pay 79 thousand USD instead of
the 100 thousand, whereas Kapan Mayor's Office is ready to allocate
its share in full. The mayor's office has prepared all the design
estamates and submitted them to the RA government for financing. After
solution of the financial problems, a tender will be held to choose
the organization to carry out the construction work, after which the
anti-landslide measures will start.
