Owners of Illegal Vayots Dzor Hydro Plant to be Fined

But government has to find them first Yesterday, during a question and answer session between parliament members and government officials, Heritage Party MP Stepan Safaryan raised the matter of the illegal construction of a small hydro-electric plant in Vayots Dzor. The illegal construction, which made news headlines a few months ago, also sought to change the natural flow of the Gayladzor tributary that empties into the Argitch River. Even though the Minister of Nature Protection has supplied answers, in writing, to MP Safaryan, the Heritage Party parliamentary factional leader again peppered the Minister, asking if the inter-departmental commission formed had ever found out who was behind the construction of the plant and what it planned to do with it. Minister Aram Harutyunyan answered that the same amount of irrigation water that had been flowing to the 100 hectares of land must be guaranteed and that there is really no need for any additional structures; that the existing resources are ample to meet demand. He added that those found responsible fo0r ordering the construction would be fined to the full extent of the law and would be obligated to rectify any negative consequences of said construction.
