    Annually 681,100 cum wastewater is annually dumped into the water
    resources of the Voghji River basin because of mining activities.

    "Zagezour Copper and Molybdenum Combine" CJSC developing Qajaran
    copper and molybdenum mine annually dumps 473,000 cum industrial
    wastewater. "Dundee Precious Metals Kapan" CJSC annually dumps 208,100
    cum industrial wastewater into the Norashenik River, as Beniamin
    Zaqaryan said when presenting "Action Plan Aimed to Achieve Desirable
    State of Meghri River" program in the frames of UNDP "Clean Energy
    and Water" program.

    Besides industrial wastewater, the waste dumps occupying an area of
    23 ha owned by Zangezour Copper and Molybdenum Combine and an area
    of 14 ha owned by "Dundee Precious Metals Kapan" company, as well as
    the areas of the tailing dumps needing reclaiming - 18 ha in Voghji
    and 3 ha in Pkhrout, also have their adversary effect on the Voghji
