By 4%, it was possible to reduce the water fence of Yerevanzhur, which is engaged in water supply and drainage in the capital of Armenia and some surrounding areas. In total, after the summer of 2006, when the company took the company by the French General des Eaux, the saving of a water intake was 16.1% — from 11358 liters per second to 9500.
«The company was achieved by modernizing the network and reducing water losses, and not least due to the reduction in the illegal use of water,» says Artak Malkhasyan, director of the law and management of contracts of Yerevanjur CJSC. A particularly large number of «water thieves» are recorded in areas of individual houses with personal gardens and gardens. A. Malkhasyan emphasizes that most citizens living in such houses are respectable users and payers, however, even a pair of “left” bounces on each street lead to a sharp increase in losses.
«Yerevanjur» independently identifies illegal water users and transfers data about them to the relevant state bodies. A recent decrease in several drams of the price of water supply for the population from the Erevanjur company looks quite optimistic, especially against the background of the rise in gas and electricity. The company compensated for the increase in electricity tariffs by the increase in the overall proportion of the use of water springs located north from the capital, the delivery of which does not require a large energy consumption to the consumer. Moreover, the tariff could be even lower if a number of Erevan enterprises were earned — machine -building, chemical plants. «One» naic «what is worth! In the meantime, — shrugs and. Malkhasyan — there is no need to think about it «.
Erevan’s water economy can seriously help to improve the government of the French government in the amount of 26 million euros, the agreement on which, as expected, will be reached before the end of this year. Of this amount, half is provided to spend aeration station in the capital on the repair of the Aeration station. The remaining part will go for the repair of collectors and the expansion of the SCADA information system, which allows you to track the state of the main components of the water supply system online in online mode.
In addition, work on the construction of branches and dividing hatches in individual houses will continue. The latter will make it possible to distinguish between responsibility for the infrastructure between subscribers of private houses and the company. There are practically no problems with this issue regarding apartment buildings.
And finally, about another program in the amount of almost $ 22 million, which is plans to implement the company «Yerevanzhur». We are talking about both credit financing and grants. Negotiations on a loan of $ 7 million between the Armenian government and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which can be signed before the end of the current month, are already being completed. Another $ 7 million, but already in the form of a grant, the EBRR is going to request from the investment instrument of the European neighborhood policy. Given the co -financing of the Armenia Government and other sources, the total funding can be the mentioned $ 2,2 million.
