    LEVEL OF SEVAN LAKE RISES BY 25 SM IN APRIL


    SEVAN, MAY 8, NOYAN TAPAN. The level of the Sevan Lake rose by 25 sm
    in April and made 1898.42 metres what is higher by 42 sm compared with
    the 2005 same month index. As the Noyan Tapan correspondent was
    informed by the "Hayhidromet" Gegharkunik marz department, the reason
    of such a great index is the fixed heavy rains and snows and partly
    overflows of rivers streaming into Sevan. Taking into account, that
    overflows of rivers streaming into Sevan are expected in May as well
    as the size of the water moving to the lake from the Arpa-Sevan
    tunnel, it is supposed that the level of Sevan will significantly rise
    up to the first half of June. In parallel to rising the level of water
    in the lake, a problem arose connected with coastal territories and
    constructions: in consequence of rise of the lake level, they remain
    under water and start to putrefy. As a result, lack of oxygen is felt
    in the lake, what has a negative influence on vital activity flora and
    fauna existing in it.
