    Because of mining annually 1,607,000 cum industrial wastewater is
    dumped into the water resources of Meghri River basin. Agarak Copper
    and Molybdenum Combine developing Agarak copper and molybdenum mine
    annually dumps 1.5 million cum industrial wastewater, while "Sipan-1"
    LLC developing Litchqvaz-Tey and Terterasar gold mines annually
    dumps 107,000 cum industrial wastewater, as "Action Plan Aimed to
    Achieve Desirable State of Meghri River" program says developed by
    hydrologist Beniamin Zaqaryan at the end of 2014 in the frames of UNDP
    "Clean Energy and Water" program.

    Besides industrial wastewater, the dumps of Agarak copper
    and molybdenum mine occupying an area of 22 ha and the dumps of
    Litchqvaz-Tey gold-polymetallic mine occupying an area of 1.2 ha have
    negative impact on Meghriget river basin added with negative impact
    of Darazam, Hovit 1 and Hovit 2 tailing dumps.

    Beniamin Zaqaryan proposes to introduce new water cleaning technologies
    to clean the industrial wastewater of mining companies and to reclaim
    dumps by enhancing slopes with soil layers and ensuring vegetation,
    adhere to the technical exploitation rules of Hovit 1 and Hovit 2
    tailing dumps, to rehabilitate 70-meter-long pipeline of the tailing
    dump polluting the water resource in Kartchevan river basin.
