Victoria Grigoryan, a resident of Jermuk resort town, has sued
Armenian PM Tigran Sargsyan and "Environmental Expertise" of Nature
Protection Ministry of RA. Victoria Grigoryan demands from court to
obligate defendants to recognize Jermuk Town population, including the
plaintiff as Amulsar gold mine impact zone. Administrative Court of
Armenia, but Appeal Court of Armenia has accepted Victoria Grigoryan's
complaint for consideration with its decision dated on 7 June.
Amulsar mine to be developed by Lydian International Company via
"Geoteam" Company is located in a distance of 12 km. As the lawsuit
says Gndevaz, Gorayq and Saravan Villages are located in approximately
similar distance, while Jermuk is not included. "I think that the
inactions of administrative bodies violate my rights and freedoms as
a person affected by the aforementioned actions," the plaintiff says
in her claim.
It should be mentioned that on 13 March 2013 Victoria Grigoryan
applied to Armenian PM with a request to recognize Jermuk as project
impact zone. Nature Protection Ministry "Environmental Expertise"
SNCO Director Andranik Gevorgyan replied to her request, "What about
the selection of project impact zone, its regulated by Article 8 of RA
Law "On Environmental Impact Expert Assessment". In case of Amulsar,
this procedure was implemented long ago, so for the aforementioned
reason it's not possible to recognize Jermuk as project impact area."
