Recently "Yerevan Jur" CJSC fixed 181 drams for one cubic meter
of water.

The price of natural gas may go up, too.

Let’s remind that the price for consumers using over 10000 cubic
meters gas was fixed 96 drams on 1 April.

ArmRusGasArd is said to have suffered great losses in the result of
a recent dram-dollar fluctuations which made the Company to boost
the prices.

Remind that HHSh Representative Hovhannes Igityan recently reminded
Vardan Ayvazyan, Chairman of the NA Standing Committee on Economic
Affairs that gas is imported to Armenia from Russia via Georgia at
the price of 150 dollars and wondered why it is sold double the price
in Armenia – at 300 dollars.

Mr. Ayvazyan said that it is beyond his competence and then appeared
in an awkward position saying gas is sold at 72 drams in Armenia.
