Nature Protection Artsrun Pepanyan told ArmInfo correspondent,
this is the first time that the young fish are bought not by the
resources of the state budget. They were provided free of charge

Protection Aram Harutyunian was also present at the event. He wanted
to get acquainted with the control process of commercial fishery.
To note, state budget 2007 foresees purchase and letting out of trout

been spent. Presently, the mirror surface level in Lake Sevan rose
and reached 1899m thanks to the relevant governmental program.
