The Ecolur NGO and the No Silence youth initiative are launching a
number of joint projects Nature or Money.
The first project deals with the Trckan waterfalls in Lori. Armenia's
Ministry of Nature Protection is responsible for preserving this
natural source of water. However, a hydro-power plant is under
construction there.
Minister of Nature Protection Aram Harutyunyan offered the contractor
to stop the construction within ten days and submit proposals for
preservation of the waterfalls.
The NGOs wonder what doubts may arise while the water consumption
permit and environmental examination certificate are illegal.
No Silence and Ecolur demand that Minister Aram Harutyunyan invalidate
the permit and certificate issued to Trchkan Hydro.
