The Yeghegis River  has got dry because of the SHPP, as Vayots Dzor Region residents are beating alarm to the Pan-Armenian Environmental Front. “We have the same situation each year, in summer and fall. Besides, there is no fishway at all, the pipe takes all the water from the river,” the residents complain. As they insist, the SHPP is located near Getivanq and is owned by ex MP Hakob Hakobyan. Under Pan-Armenian Environmental Front, this is “Yeghegis-1” SHPP developed by “Bazenq” CJSC.
