An alarm signal was received from Lori Region that Tchotchkan tailing
dump owned by Akhtala Ore Dressing Combine is in poor state and is
damaged causing substantial damage. At the same time, Akhtala Ore
Dressing Combine, not solving the problems with this tailing dump,
plans to take new area in Mets Ayrum and Tchotchkan communities
through exercising pressures and to construct a new tailing dump,
where they met the radical opposition of the residents. On 24 and 25
March an independent expert group from Yerevan conducted monitoring
in Akhtala surroundings. Expert group member Seyran Minasyan will
present the initial results of the monitoring, while Oleg Dulgaryan,
member of Mets Ayrum Aldermen's Council, "Community Union and Support
Center" NGO Chairman, will make a statement on behalf of Mets Ayrum
community residents.
