Water Committee of RA Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure is developing a draft governmental resolution "On Approving List of Measures to Implement Additional Iater intake from Lake Sevan". As we learn from the press release disseminated by RA Environment Ministry, the representatives of "Sevan" National Park SNCO participated in the discussion of the draft resolutions being developed by the Water Committee based on the proposals of Economy and Environment Ministries.
The draft law is not yet available on the platform for publishing drafts of legal acts (e-draft.am). However, the title is more than telling, it refers to the additional water intake from Lake Sevan.
Reminder: in 2023 RA Environment Ministry developed and put into circulation draft laws, the purpose of which was to exclude additional water intake from Lake Sevan in case of a negative balance of the lake. However, the draft laws were not adopted.
In recent years, additional water intakes from Lake Sevan have been carried out under conditions of negative balance of the lake.
