ARMENIAN INSPECTION FOR NATURE PROTECTION REVEALS ILLEGAL SUBSOIL USE
BY 32 TRANSACTION UNITS
YEREVAN, APRIL 13. ARMINFO. As a result of check-ups conducted in
Jan-Mar 2005, Armenia’s Inspection for nature protection revealed
facts of illegal subsoil use by 32 transaction units, informed
Minister for nature protection Vardan Ayvazyan at today’s
press-conference.
He noted that at present the worst situation of a fertile stratum of
soil is observed in the territory of Kajaran copper-molybdenum
industrial complex which does not fulfil mine reclamation. Ayvazyan
stated that the same situation of arbitrary subsoil use is also
observed in the other mines. Takings given from subsoil users will be
returned to themselves by their agreement when guaranteeing to fulfil
reclamation works. Otherwise, the Ministry will announce a tender for
conducting these works around the mines which will allow to use the
fertile stratum of soil in future. -r-
