These days intensive construction works are being done in village
Artsvaberd that has a 34 km-long border with Azerbaijan. The water
supply improvement project announced last spring by VivaCell-MTS,
Foundation for the Preservation of Wildlife and Cultural Assets
(FPWC), and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)
is being implemented.
The lack of water has resulted in the absence of basic household
conveniences, thus making the villagers leave the village community.
The village mayor is convinced that the implementation of the program
will relieve the burden of not only the villagers, but his as well.
The pump station that was out of use for around 16 years and had
undergone erosion is being renovated. Two new energy efficient pumps
will be installed there with the capacity of transferring 4 liters of
water each. New metal doors are already installed in the pump station,
and the other interior renovation works are in the process. The village
headman is convinced that after the pumps and windows are installed
and the renovation works are finished, the pump station will serve
to its purpose.
In the frame of the water supply improvement project implemented in
this village also a 5,5 km-long water pipeline will be constructed,
as well as a reserve pipeline that can transfer 4-5 liters of water
per second and a water intake station will be built. Intensive works
are done in this direction as well.
The village mayor says that everything is done to finish the project
as soon as possible. 90 % of the earthworks are done. The connection
works of water pipelines are almost finished, too. The daily regulator
reservoir (DRR) with around 370 ton-capacity has been covered with
concrete that according to the specialists' evaluation can receive
the whole of the water transferred from the 2 water pipelines and
distribute it to the villagers' houses for 24 hours.
In the near future a fence will be constructed around all the sanitary
protection zones, a water metric system will be installed that will
benefit to the economy of water. Also some other works will be finished
and the Artsvaberdtsi will no longer have to get the water from a
spring. The habit of gathering rain water for different household
purposes will also be forgotten once and for all.
As a result of the project implemented in the frame of the three-sided
agreement, the drinking water problem will be solved in Lukashin,
Arazap villages of Armavir region, and Berkaber, Artsvaberd villages
of Tavush region. VivaCell-MTS, USAID, and the Foundation for the
Preservation of Wildlife and Cultural Assets have concentrated all
their efforts and follow the process of the works.
The beneficiaries of the project will be 6800 inhabitants of the four
above mentioned villages. VivaCell-MTS has allocated AMD 70 million
and USAID - AMD 60 million for the implementation of the project.
