According to the preliminary data, positive tendency on growth of
the commercial reserves of crawfish in Lake Sevan was fixed in the
current year.
Director of Hydroecology Institute under Armenia's National Academy
of Science, Evelina Gukasyan, said at today's press-conference that
in 2012 the commercial reserves of crawfish was 850 tons. Experts
permitted to fish 220 tons out of 850. She also added that the
tendency of stabilization of the crawfish reserves was noticed for
the last years and even increasing of the permitted fishing level
cannot hinder that.
Gukasyan positively assessed fulfillment of the programme on raising
of the level of Sevan, thanks to which the indices of the water
transparency grew. At the same time, experts worry about the situation
in the rivers which run into Lake Sevan. In particular, the work of
the small power plants as well as draining of the rivers where fish
are spawning, hinder natural reproduction of certain types of fish.
