Armenia's Ministry of Environment Protection has dismissed a media
publication that it authorized two companies to construct hydro power
plants (HPP) on Arpa River in Vayodz Dzor province.
In a statement released late on Tuesday, the minsitry said that
companies that had submitted project applications - AlRub and VTV
Energy - are not authorized to construct a hydro power plant as none
of them has passed an environmental assessement.
The ministry also said it would come up with more details on the
issue later.
It comes after the Ministry of Territorial Administration dismissed
a report by the online investigative news website that one of those
proposals was approved due to Minister Armen Gevorgyan's personal
preferences.
Both companies intend to build separate hydro power plants at the
same area.
