WATER PIPE ACCIDENT

A1+
10 April, 2008

3 days ago Gyumri’s Peace Square was alarmed. Local residents warned
Shirak Water-Pipe System they had been deprived of water supply since
April 7. The service is now in to find out the cause. There is no
sign of an outer accident. Water pipes run through the cellars which
causes great difficulties in operations.

Executive secretary of the Water Pipe System declares the residents
delay the operations by refusing to open the cellars. The employees are
unable to find out the cause in such conditions. No accident has been
detected yet. Lyudvig Elbakian, Water-Supply service manager notifies
operations will continue. The situation might be an effect of a block.

By the way, dwellings in Gyumri’s Peace Square were built long ago and
the water supply system is decayed like that of all other streets. So
digging might cause even further difficulties.
