The Yerevan city council has assigned a specialized committee to
regulate, as well as show a professionally grounded and unified
approach to sanitary tree-cutting and trimming.
The committee comprises correspondents of Yerevan city council's
department of environmental protection and the environmental protection
program at OSCE Office in Yerevan, representatives of the RA Ministry
of Nature Protection and "Orhaus" informational-analytical centers,
as well as researchers and assistant researchers from Yerevan State
University and the Botanical Institute.
According to the press release of the municipality, the committee has
completely studied the state of trees on Zakyan and Khorenatsi streets,
as well as Myasnikyan and Isakov avenues. The trees on Khorenatsi and
Zakyan Streets were mainly ash-trees and were planted in the period
between 1950 and 1955.
According to conclusions by professionals, the roots of those tree
types are fully destroyed. There are deep hollows and notable cracks
that have debilitated the growth of roots.
Ash-trees live up to a maximum of 45-50 years, but they currently live
up to 50 years. Such trees are a potential danger to road accidents
and human life. In order to avoid that, according to the specialized
group's conclusion, a decision has been taken to cut these trees and
plant new ones.
The issue of trees on Myasnikyan and Isakov avenues mainly refers
to the black poplars. The trees were planted from 1955 to 1960 and,
based on the specialized group's conclusions, need to be rejuvenated.
Observations have shown that black poplars have mainly outgrown. Their
roots are superficial and as a result, these trees often fall down
due to strong winds and cause accidents. The rejuvenation of these
trees will ensure their security and raise longevity," as stated in
the notice by Yerevan city council's department of information and
public relations.
After project implementation, there will be 70 rejuvenated and 90
new trees in Yerevan in 2010.
