    RESORT ZONE MAY BE DESTROYED

    The people in Stepanavan have addressed a letter to the Prosecutor
    of Lori Regional Karen Shahbazyan on the issue of the lawfulness of
    "Stepanavan-2" SHP in the resort zone, EcoLur NGO reports.

    "We have examined the documents and detected that the territory
    they mentioned is on the Dzoraget River, while the construction was
    launched on the tributary to the Dzoraget, Chqnagh River. This is
    our resort zone. Here water is drained to the pipes, and the whole
    fauna and flora and all beautiful landscapes have been destroyed.

    The public hearings were held on 18 January and nobody warned us
    about it. The website of the ministry didn't mention the date of
    holding public hearings. On the same day the public hearings on the
    construction of two other HPPS were held, those of "Stepanavan-5"
    SHP and "Stepanavan-6" SHP". We had no idea about them. I can't
    understand, how two public hearings can be held simultaneously,
    which have impact on the same territory.

    The way for Stepanavan development is tourism. This is a resort zone,
    which may turn into a resort place of international significance. But
    this will remain a dream, if SHPs are constructed in our beautiful
    places," Said Stepanavan Aarhus Center Coordinator Manya Meliqjanyan
    in her interview with EcoLur.
