    FUNDS FROM STATE BUDGET TO BE ALLOCTATED FOR IRRIGATION SYSTEM REPAIRS FOR FIRST TIME

    Noyan Tapan
    April 4, 2008

    YEREVAN, APRIL 4, NOYAN TAPAN. The 2008 program on repairs of
    irrigation systems was approved at the April 4 sitting of the Armenian
    government. The chairman of the RA State Water Industry Committee
    Andranik Andreasian told reporters after the sitting that the program
    envisages allocating 1 bln 407 mln drams (about 4.5 mln USD) from the
    state budget for major repairs of the irrigation systems. According
    to him, it is for the first time that state budgetary resources are
    allocated not only to fill the gap of the system's current expenditures
    but also to relieve the burden of capital expenditures.

    A. Andreasian said that the program has two subcomponents: urgent
    work to be done prior to the irrigation season, and major work,
    including major repairs of pumping stations and main water-pipes.

    It was stated that the Millennium Challange Program on the irrigation
    systems will be implemented starting from next year. Studies and
    design research work is currently underway.
