Yerevan will be cleaned with the help of a Russian company with
which the Armenian side has signed a contract to get refuse-cleaning
containers. The head of the Construction, reconstruction and communal
economy department of the Yerevan municipality Frunzik Basentsyan
informed about it today.
The residents of the Arabkir community will be the first to get the new
containers. They will arrive in Armenia till the end of September. At
present there are 6000 containers in Yerevan. According to Basentsyan,
450 tons of house refuse is taken out of Yerevan. The process is
carries out by 12 organizations with 270 cars.
By the way, the workers of the organizations are paid only for moving
the house refuse. As for the technical dumps, the citizens must pay
separately for their cleaning.
Mr. Basensyan was surprised to learn that very often refuse cars
are driven without a cover violating the sanitary norms. “I have
never heard of it. If there are such cases, those responsible must
be punished for it”.
