YEREVAN, JANUARY 21, ARMENPRESS: The construction of the new water
main in Apaven village, Lori province, has been completed. An official
from the Hayastan All Armenian Fund told Armenpress that the project,
worth around 32 million Armenian drams, was sponsored by the Fund’s
Montreal local committee.
Through the 620 m long pipeline and 1200m long inner network drinking
water is already supplied to around 30 households of the community.
"Before launching a new project, we first tackle the most important
problem existing in the community; that is a principle approach we
have adopted," the Fund Acting Executive Director Ara Vardanyan said.
The village of Apaven located 1650 m above sea level had been
experiencing water supply problems for many years now. Water running
from the old and excessively damaged pipeline was no longer fit for
drinking and was a serious problem for the residents.
