The Ministry of Nature Protection just responds to the buildings constructed along Lake Sevan’s coast, but doesn’t provide a final solution, said Ecolur NGO President Inga Zarafyan at a press conference today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As an example, Zarafyan noted the Gegamet Plus CJSC (a mining and exploration company) processing plant along Lake Sevan’s Shorja coast.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“We met with Gegamet Plus President Vladimir Gasparyan, [and] spoke about the plant’s dangers; however, he told us that their activities aren’t harmful, and the tailings leaked as a result of processing include a natural filter and do not pose a threat,” explained Zarafyan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Ecolur president considered the activities of MIKA Cement as likewise dangerous.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“MIKA Cement company also day and night takes cement from the so-called Artanish area, however that area is likewise included in Sevan’s ecosystem,” she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
