Berdashen's water crisis is a thing of the past
Yerevan, July 22, 2009 - The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund has completed
construction of a water-supply system in Berdashen, a village in
Nagorno Karabakh's Martuni Region. Comprising 16 kilometers of both
gravitational and pressurized water mains as well as an inner network,
the new system has already begun supplying the 1,582 residents of
Berdashen with fresh, healthful water, derived from a number of
mountain springs.
The vitally important project was made possible through the
sponsorship of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Argentinean affiliate,
with contributions from benefactors Alicia Vosgerichian de Magarian,
Varujan Panossian, and Hovsep Magarian - in memory of Takvor Magarian
and Nvart Terzian Magarian.
"The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Argentinean affiliate has
implemented a wide range of projects in Artsakh, and the construction
of the Berdashen water-supply system is yet another testament to our
overseas compatriots' wonderful dedication to their homeland," said
Ara Vardanyan, the fund's executive director.
Past initiatives financed by the Argentinean affiliate include the
Martuni Region's Kaghartsin-Spitakashen water pipeline, which was
completed in October 2008.
Berdashen's old water-supply system, built in 1960, had long fallen
into disrepair, making daily life extremely difficult for the
residents. Currently, with the new system ready for utilization,
engineers are helping the villagers install water meters and hook up
to the inner distribution network.
Commenting on the new water-supply system, Berdashen mayor Ernik
Gevorgyan said this much-anticipated milestone will not only
significantly improve the lives of the residents, but boost prospects
for continued community development and prosperity.
