    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. The Millennium Challenge
    Account-Armenia (MCA-Armenia) SNCO announced the award of a contract
    to "SADE" (France) in consortium with "SHMSH-23" (Armenia) for
    the rehabilitation of the first package of six main canals, a .7
    million contract under the MCA-Armenia Irrigated Agriculture Project
    Infrastructure Activity. The contract was signed at the MCA-Armenia
    Offices on December 16 2008 by MCA-Armenia CEO Ara Hovsepyan and
    Mr. Francis Marquiez of "SADE".

    The first package rehabilitation works will involve sectional concrete
    lining along approximately 4.2 kilometers of the Arzni-Shamiram main
    canal and rehabilitation of the hydro-technical structures in the
    sections of Artashat, Lower Hrazdan, Armavir, Talin, Arzni-Shamiram and
    Shirak main canals that are in a critical state and require immediate
    attention. The work will cover the Armenian marzes of Armavir,
    Aragatsotn, Ararat, Kotayk and Shirak, and will begin in January 2009.

    The contract also includes a pilot sub-component to test shotcrete
    and other advanced technologies in lining of approximately 200m of
    the canal. If successful, the shotcrete or other advanced technologies
    will be applied in the future civil works for rehabilitation of canals
    and hydro-technical structures, MCA-Armenia Office reported.
