YEREVAN. - Trchkan Armenian environmental initiative has sent another
letter to the Minister of Nature Protection Aram Harutyunyan that
informs about the danger lying on Arpa river. The newly built two
hydro-electric stations may dry the river.
The activity also provides the relevant photos.
"The photos clearly show that the channel of the river and one of
the waterfalls has already dried and the other waterfall which is
also included in the list of nature monuments of Armenia hardly flows.
We kindly ask you to review this issue and find out how the owners
of hydro-electric stations violated the ecology norms, and caused
the channel of the river dry.
This is not the only case when we see how the small hydro-electric
stations damage the nature. Our activity will keep this problem in
its focus and gather facts and substantiations which will later be
submitted to the Ministry of Nature Protection," the letter reads.
