The territory where the forest is felled down is not owned by “ArmForest” SNCO, but is the administrative territory of Saravan Village, as “ArmForest” Chief Forestry Officer Ruben Petrosyan told EcoLur. “Our employees checked the alarm signal and found out that Saravan Village Head allotted the territory for the construction of a nursery yard for a mining company. We don’t know exactly which company it is and now they are dealing with cleaning the territory,” said Ruben Petrosyan. 

It should be mentioned that the alarm signal of tree felling in Saravan is recorded in Nature Protection Minister, and as Armen Vardanyan, Head of Information and Public Relations Department of Nature Protection Ministry, told EcoLur, the State Environmental Inspection is dealing with this problem.
